Staffordshire Resources & Offers / divorce records
« on: Saturday 09 December 23 01:13 GMT (UK)  »
 I have found out that my Aunt Ivy Onions married a Norman A Bates in June 1943 Walsall. and there was a divorce in the Birmingham Daily Gazette Wednesday 18th September 1946 but I can't see any details only dates. How can I find the details ? They were cousins so maybe that was a reason for the divorce. My Aunt sailed for Australia in 1947 as Miss Ivy Bates and married Trevor Craddock in Melbourne. Nothing was ever mentioned about a previous marriage by my family it was a well kept secret, and now they are all dead I will never know what they knew. Thanks in advance Chris.

Family Bibles / Finding my family bible
« on: Wednesday 14 August 19 05:27 BST (UK)  »
As a child I used to spend hours looking at a leather bound bible that my grand mother always had in her dresser. In the middle were the names and dates of birth of family members. It has been missing or thrown away for years now but I would love to find it again the names would have been Eckersley or Onions not sure which one it was.
