looking for Connie Creighton

['Trish']

I know if anyone is going to be able to help but my mother has just told me that we are distantly related to Connie Creighton (from Sooty and Sweep shows etc).  Through my great grandmother, who's brother Thomas Austin (b1870 S Wales) married Rose surname unknown.  They adopted Connie Creighton's mother and uncle, the children were the niece and nephew of Rose.  Rose lived in Bournemouth and apparently her daughter owned a Antique shop on St Peter's hill many years ago.
Rose also owned a dairy, in Ripon Road (or vacinity).  Thomas worked on the railways and met Rose in Salisbury.

I would like either to prove or disprove this theory.  I am told that Connie and her husband lived in Bournemouth for many years but, also worked around the north of England - Southport.
Can any help with putting some 'leaves on the tree' that I have?
regards Trish

Likely marriage of her parents:

And there is a birth for a
Herbert ALfred Creighton in WIltshire...

Ap/May/Jun 1908

I just wonder if that is the right one ..

That's a good fit with this death:

Name: Herbert Alfred Creighton
Birth:  25 Feb 1908
Death reg: Nov 1986 - Bournemouth (vol 23 p153)

So ... we need to prove that Grace H Owen is a neice of Rose Warren (I think .....)

Really need the Creighton/Owen marriage cert, I think, to try and find Grace H's family .... I think

Hi thanks for that, could we not find out if a brother or sister of Rose Warren married into the Owen family?
