Is Turnbull her maiden name or her married name?

There is a Violet M. Edmunds marriage to a William H. Turnbull in 1942 in Brentford.

Could this be her?

All I know is that her name was Violet Maud Turnbull in 1952 and she lived in bexleyheath in Kent. I was just assuming she was born around the 1920's and that would have been her maiden name, but I could be wrong!! argh would really appreciate more help in this matter. Thank you to all who have helped so far though :-D

?
Violet Maud Turnbull
Birth Date: 1 Mar 1911
Date of Registration: May 2003
Age at Death: 92
Registration district: Neath and Port Talbot
Inferred County: West Glamorgan
Register number: B79D
District and Subdistrict: 896/1B
Entry number: 47

But if she married after the 1950's we are looking for quite a different person. What connection is she to you, to try to find her from a different angle?

Are you looking for her because she had a child? Her maiden name will be on the birth registration.

Is it Lynne? The mmn is Turnbull.

Violet's age & other data maybe in the adoption file
There is only one marriage in England & Wales after 1952 for a Violet M Turnbull

Michelle

Michelle Report 6 Oct 2011 14:30

There is nothing on the adoption file.. only the hostpital, her address at the time and her name!!

If that's her death registration it gives birthdate as 1 Mar. 1911 so she should show up on the 1911 census which was taken 2 April. I don't have access myself.

I cant find her on the 1911 Census...

I have just looked that one up (Medway) . It could be her (it's pretty close to where I live now)!! How do I find out more about her??? Please feel free to suggest :-)

jax Report 6 Oct 2011 16:24

Think we can scrub that one as this looks like her marriage

Michelle Report 6 Oct 2011 16:31

So are you saying that I should now be looking for a Violet Belcher??? :-S

jax

jax Report 6 Oct 2011 16:49

No

All I was saying was the one born 1911 Medway married 1935 medway...so I doubt that she is the one you are looking for.

There is a Violet marrying in 1953 in London that could be her perhaps??

Michelle

Michelle Report 6 Oct 2011 16:56

oh no got my hopes up then :(
Not sure what to do next... :-S

Penny Report 6 Oct 2011 17:23

I dont think anyone will be able to identify her ''just like that''. Facts/suggestions might be made, some of which might take time to follow up, research before deciding right or wrong person.

Penny

Penny Report 6 Oct 2011 17:24

OK, putting it bluntly - are you Lynne?
Or are you search FOR Lynne( on her behalf)
Or are you Looking for Lynne ( looking to find her)

You said just now

''I have just looked that one up (Medway) .'' What did you look up and where did you look it up?
