Thanks again to you all.

I am returning to the UK about 5th October and will then order certs. I think that now I need about 20 in all so I guess that will be an early christmas present from me to me!

I am so impressed by the skills you all have, I have looked and looked for Ann and now realise she was Hannah, why oh why did I not think of that??

If I obtain the death cert will it say if she was killed by reckless driver or give any info such as a postmortem etc.?


I am so greatful to you all, my brother in law is one of her sibblings and since he lost his own son in tragic circumstances he has often talked about this sister but has lost most of his childhood memories. He copes fairly well but ....
He is so pleased that I said I would look at his tree, so now can confirm all siblings and can start to look for grandparents etc so if anyone has a spare few minutes....

THANK YOU EVERYOINE

I wonder if that has been miscribed as he has always been called Ron or Ronald but definetly the right person. The family lived in Chelsea, Sloane Square area which seems to have come under Middlesex.

I do hope you can find Ann, I have tried Anne, Annetete an any other similar name but so far silch...if it wasn't for that photo I would start to think that they all shared the same imaginary friend!

Please can someone help me as I seem to have come to a dead end.
I am looking for the birth and death of Ann Howe born c1938 and died
c1941 when she was hit by a coal lorry somewhere in Chelsea I believe

her parents were Percy William Howe born in Chelse 1904
Miriam Mary Coleman born 1906 died 1989.

Siblings

Dorothy M unsure of dates
Percy Willian 1930 to 2000 born in Chelsea
Clara unknown date of birth but died in 2009
Leslie 1933 Living born in Chelsea
Ron 1936
Margaret not sure of dates

All the children were born in Chelsea London as far as I know.

Unfortunatly the survivng siblings cannot recall the deatils of Anns' death although there is one photo of her when she was around 2 or 3 years old.


Many thanks

Bridget
