hi can anyone help
I'm stuck on my family tree regarding Leah Owen . Leah Owen had a sister called violet Owen she married john h powell in 1937 in Birmingham . can you help
king regards Mrs bongo
-
What exactly are you stuck on?
-
The only one I can find is Violet May Owen born 4.5.1907 @ Yiewsley & Died 17.10.1996
-
From FreeBMD:
John H POWELL m. Violet I OWEN Jun Q 1937. (Birmingham 6d 1025)
The marriage cert would give Violet's (and Leah's) father's name.
-
Looking at your previous posts, Leah's maiden name appears to be BIGGS, not OWEN - or am I missing something?
-
Is this Violet's death?
Dec 1968
Nuneaton
Ref 9c. 949
Violet I Powell
Age 63
If so, born about 1905
-
The only birth I can see with a middle name beginning with I is
Jul/Aug/Sep 1906
Glamorgan
Ref 11a. 901
Violet Irene Owen
She seems to be the daughter of David and Alice and has a brother Cifford. Not looking like the right birth.
But just looked at your previous posts that Rambler referred to. I see Leah was born about 1880. Quite a gap if she sister to the Violet who died 1968 and was born 1905!
