Just to let you know I have now found out some more information and have made contact with Descendents of sheila's Thankyou all for your help

Deb Yes if you could give us the Gro I would appreciate it Thanks Sammy Thanks for that this isanother one I might need to follow up by the looks of it ! Thanks again

Hey Paul..... a birth! Sept quarter 1965 Karen England mother's maiden name: Ridley District: Kingston/Thames Vol: 5c Pg: 1510

As Deb has kindly offered you the page you should be able to read the ref's... hopefully

Hello Paul Sorry I missed that. Have relooked over the page 1964 and she married as Sheila not Shiela and the second letter looks like an N but is obviousy a W. If you would like a copy of the GRO page let me know. Deb

Yes thanks Sammy , i went down the local librabry today and found out that Sheila ridley married a Roger England in Surrey N in the march quarter in 1964, a year before I was born lol. Unfornately I could not read the number for the certificate as it was very hard to see, so if anyone can confirm the numbers I need for me that would be a great help. As they say one door closes another one opens !

You'll soon find out when you get the cert Paul - hope this get's you somewhere at least Regards Sam

Sammy it could also be the fact that she might not of married , if her mum alice Remarried she might of chnaged her daughters name as well. But at least it looks like I might of got somewhere thanks to you.

The ref's were not on Ancestry - I just checked 1837 for you Volume No 15 Page No 2020 Reg No 388

Paul The surname above , is ENGLAND, surely that means she did marry? sam

Thanks Sam for your help, i am been trying to find out about her for a couple of years. Did you get the certificate number by any chance Anyway thankyou for your help Paul

I'm afraid she has died... Name: Sheila Winifred England Death Year: [1988] Age: 44 Birth Date: 1 Sep 1943 Death Registration Month/Year: Mar 1988 Registration District: Westminster Inferred County: Greater London Inferred Country: England Volume No 15 Page No 2020 Reg No 388 Shiela has become SHEILA but it will be a huge coincedence if this is not the person you seek. The spelling of her name would have been down to the informant Sorry it's not good news, and she was only 44yrs of age. The cert may still help you search further Kind regards Sam

Sammy her date of birth is 1st september 1943, I hope that helps .

What's Shiela's DOB in 1943?

I have contacted the War graves office and I am now awaiting a reply, but if anyone can help then please give me shout !

Thankyou Helen I will give that a try and see what they say !

Hello Paul Presumably your Andrew is the one on the War Graves site with parents Joseph and Grace as well as wife Alice. Have you tried contacting them and asking when this information was collected, as if it was post war, then it may narrow down the dates for any possible remarriage by Alice. I had a similar problem with a death in WW1 with a relatives wife being given a different surname. It turned out she had remarried in the early 1920's so the information must have come from later than that. Hope it helps. Helen

You could also look and see if there is an earlier death for Shiela (or Winifred) - she may not have reached maturity? Jay

Thankyou deborah for your help and thanks for the Idea, I don't know if Shiela did marry all I know is she was born in 1943, so I suppose 1965 onwards could be a go, also I don't know if she used her mum's maiden name , which was pattinson. I just don't know.

Hello Paul There is no marriage between 1961 and 1970 for a Shiela Ridley. She may have had her name changed if her mother remarried. I will look in my files in the morning see if I can find an Alice. Obviously it may not be her but I will take a look Deb (nee Ridley)
