Yes, this is the right Osborne,Violet and Richard were married in 1923, at west bromwich, [vol 6b page 1167].
The ref i have got for Valerie is vol 6a page 473.
The ref for Violet birth is 6b page 856,
Have not got a death date for Violet.
Richard`s death was Vol 29 page 814.

This is all the info I have at the moment.

Hi Mick

Have you searched on here for any members with Valerie White born 1936? There is a member called Julie who has Valerie White b 1936 Birmingham in her tree.....it might be worth sending her a message.

Am I right in assuming that you are trying to find Valerie's whereabouts now?

Thanks, have already ben in touch with Julie, but it seems its the wrong one.
Yes I am trying to trace her as she is my maternal mother.
I havent had that much look trying to trace anyone,as I think she had an elder brother who died in Soilihull. Osborne Lawrence White.
Have also searched in Ancestry.com and found more results,and you dont have to pay to look at them either.

Thanks Mick
