I sent you a reply twice. I said I was completely naff at this! Sorry.

I can't tell you how grateful I am for that Christine. it would have taken me a year to do that! I think I should now go down another track and see if she reverted to her maiden name of Johnstone. I cannot find anything about her husband Robert Garratt except that they married in September 1931 in Silloth Cumbria and he was given as aged 34 and his father was called Wilfred.

..any chance Robert G died and she remarried? That would give a different name...

I've checked 1970 - 2005. Can't see her!

Thanks for looking Christina.

Hi Sam, I think I did it wrong before! She was born about 1895 as I found her on the 1901 census and it said she was 6. She was then in Cockermouth.

Many thanks

When you say 'you think', does that mean that you are guessing or have you actually located her on a census - or have her marriage cert - to confirm her age?

She was born about 1895 I think!

When was she born?

Mavis

Mavis Report 5 Aug 2008 21:59

She was called Agnes Mary Johnstone and she married in 1931 to Robert Garratt/Garrett

Sam Report 5 Aug 2008 21:55

When was she born? I assume that Garrett was her married name?

I am very new to this and getting nowhere fast! Please could someone tell me how to find out when Agnes died. I think it was in the Cockermouth area of Cumbria and it may have been in the 1970's or 1980's.

She lived in the Blackpool area for many years but I understand that she actually died in Cockermouth.

Any help gratefully received
