Find Ancestors

Hi
I am trying to find the SHARRATT family from Derbyshire...in particular HILDA SHARRATT her parents and siblings.

The info I have is....
(marriage cert)
Hilda Sharratt W.A.A F aged 25 spinster married my late uncle Flt. Sgnt. John Eyre Brown RAAF 27.11.1943 Parish church Fairfield Buxton Derbyshire
ADDRESS OF BRIDE ... The Croft St Peters Road Fairfield
FATHER OF BRIDE... WILLIAM SHARRATT
WITNESSES ....Kenneth George Feeney ( his pilot)
GWENDOLINE SHARRATT (sister??)
(sadly my uncle was KIA just 6mths later)

(Hilda then went on to marry Henry Howell whom she later divorced and then came to Australia with her 4yr old son where she died in 1989)

I WOULD LIKE TO FIND DETAILS OF HILDA'S BIRTH,HER PARENTS AND SIBLINGS in Derbyshire

( ps.I have been in contact with Genes member that has a Gwendoline Sharratt on her tree)

Cheers
Colleen

Sorry......Edit.....I believe her name was Hilda Willese (Willece?) Sharratt and she may have possibly had a sister Dianne

Is this her birth?

Births Mar 1918 (>99%)
Sharratt Hilda Skelson Ashby de la Zouch 7a 140

Ordering the certificate would confirm her father's name.

Edit - dont' think its correct - this is the marriage -


Marriages Sep 1915 (>99%)
Sharratt Frank Skelson Ashby Z. 7a 301
Shelson Elizabeth Sharratt Ashby Z. 7a 301
Skelson Elizabeth Sharratt Ashby Z. 7a 301

Father's name is not William

Thanks for looking Lynski

Possibles ?????????

Births Jun 1926 (>99%)
Sharratt Gwendoline Fearn Derby 7b 962

Marriages Dec 1913 (>99%)
Fearn Sarah Sharratt Shardlow 7b 1102
Sharratt William Fearn Shardlow 7b 1102

Cannot find a birth for Hilda that matches this???

Does the Genes member who has Gwendoline in her tree have any more information that could help you??

There are 3 people with Hilda Sharratt born 1918, +/- 5 years in their trees.

Have you made contact with them? Hilda could have "tweeked" her age when she married??

Births Jun 1918 (>99%)
Sharratt Hilda Clark Bolton 8c 5[2_]_

The district Bolton spans the boundaries of the counties of Greater Manchester and Lancashire

Possible marriage for the above???

Marriages Dec 1914 (>99%)
Clark Elizabeth Sharratt Burnley 8e 316
Sharratt William Clark Burnley 8e 316

Do you know if she had any other siblings?????

Please see original post with edit... sorry Lynski

Could Gwendoline have been her sister-in-law????

?????????
Births Jun 1921 (>99%)
Sharratt Hilda W Weaver Derby 7b 1305

That is the only birth registered for Sharratt/Weaver on FreeBMD

I will keep looking..........

This is Hilda leaving UK and suggests 1818 as yr of birth as well

Would I be able to get her service records from the WAAF? That would hopefully give next of kin etc.

Does her Australian death certificate not give her parents names?

Hi Astra

I do not have a death cert...Just know when and where she died...

On my Dad's cert it doesn't give parents (1989)

but on my Mum's it does (1992)

Cheers
Colleen

( certs in South Australia are around $40 AUS so I don't usually buy them unless they are very close rellies.

I was just curious about Hilda but If I don't find the info then it is not a major drama
But I am grateful to those who have tried

Cheers Colleen

Do you know what name she died under? Did she re-marry when she got to Australia?
It's just that I can't find her death under Howel.

Oh sorry Astra.. she remarried and became Williams...she died at Iron Knob South Australia in 1989

Didn't realize you would be looking for her death.. sorry

have to go off line for awhile.....check back later....
