Norman McCready « on: Monday 02 November 09 14:51 UTC (UK) »
I am hoping someone can provide some information about my mother's cousin Norman McCready who was born 1913 in Bradford to Thomas McCready & Louisa Linklater who married 1911 in Aberdeen. He also had a brother Douglas who was born 1915 in Bradford. I am fairly certain both of them got married but have no details. I don't know if they had any children but maybe someone knows of them. I think they ended up living in or near Maldon hence the reason for posting in Essex.
there are 3 douglas mccready marriages in england that i can see 2 in gateshead one in 1954 there is a death in gateshead of a douglas mccready in 1989 and this one was born 1933 the other marriage was in gateshead in 1976 the most likely one was the other one of the 3 this was in 1940 in spen valley,north riding yorkshire the spouses name was margaret j. lister of course this is pure guesswork and you would need the cert to confirm if this is your man

Thanx again this has given me something to work on. It does seem that the last one in Spen Valley is the most likely one. As you say certificates is the only way to confirm.
here are the indexes if you want to orderr the certs i think you can specify they only go ahead and send the certs if the fathers name is thomas mccready i think they make a small charge for this norman mccready y.o.r. 1945 qtr; oct/nov/dec dist; maldon county; essex vol; 4a page; 2323
douglas mccready y.o.r. 1940 qqtr; oct/nov/dec dist; spen valley county; north riding,yorkshire vol; 9b page; 1382
