It seems odd to marry in 1943 if that is her?? and not have a child until 1948 unless Mr Knowles went to war and never came back? Maybe a G.I ?? or would that be too early for G.I's??

Or was the Robertson chap a G.I ?

Did your dads brother have the same father ?

And the second child seems to be registered only as Knowles ... (as he is very probably living, and barely older than me, I didn't want to ask/post too much about him).

Only the certificates will tell!


This seems like the obvious birth for Mr Knowles:

Births Jun 1924
Knowles Thomas C Marks Basford 7b 491

and this death could match that birth (if the birth was registered just within the 6 weeks, putting it in the June quarter):

Name: Thomas Charles Knowles
Birth Date: 26 Feb 1924
Death Registration Month/Year: Jul 1984
Age at death (estimated): 60
Registration district: Nottingham
Inferred County: Nottinghamshire
Volume: 8
Page: 934


Using the Search Trees button up top -- someone here at GR has Thomas Knowles 1924 Nottingham in their tree, and there was only that one birth in Nottinhamshire in 1924. (The TK in another tree born 1926 Nottingham is a different one, not Thomas C.)

Someone else has Winifred James 1922 Aylesbury in their tree.

It might be worth contacting them to ask whether they know about the lives of the Thomas and Winifred in their trees.
