burial records in Walsall England

[lizdb]

If the one I found is her, it seems she married a Haydon.


Which birth cert have you sent for then?

[carol8353]

When did she go to the US,have you found her on any emigration website?

You say you think you have found her in the blitz in London,in what records?
We may be able to find her on the electoral rolls.

Are you sure she was born in Walsall in Staffordshire?
It's a long way from London

Mom was Eileen Winifred Haydon, born July 6, 1921.

Answer to one of the questions!
Thats why I looked in Jul/Aug/Sep 1921 quarter

[lizdb]

She would be 18 in 1939, start of the war.
I am not sure that she could go travelling then - especially not to France!

[lizdb]

Possible -
Electoral registers 1945 (she would be 24, and it would be in tbe blitz time)
10 Christchurch Street Chelsea
Eileen W Haydon

[carol8353]

When did she go to the US,what was her surname then?
Did she marry your dad out there,do you have that marriage cert,as it looks very much as though she married as Eileen W Pinches to Edward J Haydon in 1941.

There are only 3 births in the 1921 Sept 1/4 of an Eileen W anything,which would cover a July birth.
And only one of them in Walsall-I'm with Liz on this,she MUST be Eileen W PInches.
All our BMD records are centralised so will appear on the FreeBMD list for that date.

Births Sep 1921   

Lenton    Eileen W    Sutton    Wolverhampton    6b   1115    
Pinches    Eileen W    Prior    Walsall    6b   1441    
Sharples    Eileen W    Hikin    Wolstanton    6b   183

This Pinches angle looks more and more convincing.

Birth Eileen W Pinches 1921 Walsall to Pinches and mother's maiden name Prior already identified.  James Henry Pinches married Gertrude Prior 1909 Walsall.  Children of Pinches-Prior:  Gertrude b.1916 and twins Henry and Joseph both birth and death Dec 1918 Walsall - the twins mentioned?

Same process for Eileen and husband, i.e. children of Haydon-Pinches:  John E Haydon 1942 and Paul M Haydon 1944, both Walsall.  Paul M died 1945 Birmingham?

Edward John Haydon registered death 1995 Walsall - same as husband?
 
The Blitz in London is generally taken to be 1940-41.  Maybe war service took her there?  Maybe her husband, too.

[lizdb]

I reckon she left Edward Haydon, went to London during the war, then emigrated (either straight to US or via a trip around post war France), where she married and started a new life. She may not even admit to being married before when she marries in the US (there is a death for an Edward John Haydon in Walsall in 1995 age 82), if that is him, there must either be a divorce,or the US marriage is bigamous but it might not be him)

I hadn't even bothered looking for the twins birth/deaths as the OP said they were stillborn- they weren't if they were registered,they lived ,even for a short time.

Still births were not registered till 1927 and even then the indexes are not open for public viewing.
