wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction - Looking for a death of SELINA ELLEN NUNN -nee Griffiths... Altho' she was born in M'boro in June 1901, her husband died in Wisbeck, in 1941, i'm assuming that she moved there with him. [Can't find her].... John

Is this possible? I know it's before hubby died!

Hi Jan & Lindsey, spouse was John Thomas Nunn who died in 1941... Guess she could have re-married to - Jan, what do they mean by Date of Registration 1936. ?

This is confusing. There's this Selina E. Griffiths who married John T. Nunn in Middlesbrough in 1901.

I think the Selina Nunn who married Joseph Fletcher in 1936 was the daughter of John Nunn and Selina Griffiths.

OR the same Selina who remarried in 1936.

Margee - that is a brilliant deduction - although I don't have her down as one of their children [ I don't have that 'area' complete anyway], it sounds very good - right area too......... Many thanks Margee.
John :-)

But, John, you said she was born 1901?

Exactly - if born 1901 she can't have married the same year!

She must be older surely:

Daughter's marriage I would say. I suggest you get John's death cert to see who registered the death.

brummiejan, looks like you've got it... For that I am VERY grateful. Infact you have done me a greal deal of good with that family as some of the children differ completely and yours look to be spot on. I certainly did not have the marriage of Beatrice, another big plus. The fact that you have given me the info on John Thomas was another... All I can say is - THANK YOU..................And thank you to all the other fine members who have helped... Very grateful.........Regards. John
