I'm sure I've looked for this woman before and found a birth reference for Wem in Shrops. nell

Carole thankyou, there has always been a bit of a mystery with this side of family......maybe her father was not william after all? Winifred did say to her daughter (my nan) that she will never find out about her past...strange thing to say to your child i think!

Emma Haven't you previously posted this look up request and had the information that people have already located? The name rings a bell, as does the curious fox site that has been mentioned Lou

The only Winifred Wynn on the 1901 census the right age has a father named Thomas. I will check some spelling variations. Carole No, can't see anything. Follow the Google lead!

Thats probably just the first of many births outside (or only just inside) wedlock you will find. Despite what your parents/grandparents claim, sex before marriage WASN'T invented in the 60s!! Carole p.s. I'll see if I can find her on the 1901 census.

Hello Sam...winifred married a man called Albert Charman in 1926, another thing puzzling me....they already had my gran before they married, was that ALLOWED?

I may be just a bit stupid! Im looking for my Great gran Winifred Kathleen Wynn B 1895. Dont know where as cant find birth cert! On her marriage cert her father is William wynn, dead at the time of wedding. No age for him, says he was actor. How do i find him? if i have no clue how old he was or where he came from? Winifred married and died in Lambeth. Thanks Emma x
