Margi, Do you know when she died? Rose

No i havent beenable to find nothing but the marriage and the birth of there daughter megan 1935 sorry its so maddening isnt it

Hey Margi, I searched the births for 1909/10 for eleanor (or edith) mary hammond, focusing on the middle and surnames due to uncertainty of the first name. The only possibility i saw was 'eleanor m. Hammond' registered july-sep quarter 1910 in Knighton 11b 107. There were a couple of edith may hammond's...may be worth double checking the middle name. I'd also note that the last quarter of 1910 births are missing from ancestry...something that caused me to be unsure of some ancestors. Best of luck. Steve

Maybee thats why i carnt find her is there any othere way to go if she was born the latter end of 1910, i checked the marriage cert and the only name that remains the same is mary! edith/eleanor is a mystery but i have a couple of choices to follow on with thanks to all for looking but if any one finds her give us a shout thank you all margi
