search for birth Dorthy Caldecott

As a matter of interest - where did you pick this up from?  I have been using FindMyPast and various others - without a squeek at being close.  lol

If you don't want to say - I will understand

Hi Siralli, The other one 

Frank.

The death Frank mentions is on FindMyPast but you need to access the record to see the date of birth which isn't shown in the free index.

Is this the correct Dorothy though, with Henney's death recorded in Manchester and this one Surrey?

Good question - initial thoughts are perhaps not, but one must keep an open mind and store for later if needed, all snippets are always welcomed, and should all else fail we revert back to ths stash don't we, and have yet another even closer look.  lol

I am currerently looking more closely at the John William fth (on m cert) end of things, kindly provided on here earlier - to see if any headway might be made on that front.

I have no reason to discount this JW as fth of dorothy (at this stage) so I tried looking from the marriage in 1906, for all siblings from this "Harper" union - desperately hoping that the list might stretch to 1927 and beyond...you never can tell, and perhaps find a dorothy around this time?  Thwarted - once again, doesn't appear to quite go the distance!
Never mind - we soldier on, and thanks for the warning to beware.

Anyone with other ideas as to a possible way forward to finding the birth of "dorothy" caldecott around 1927?  Or alternative ideas for discovery?

Best wishes to all

Hi

Who were the witnesses, on Henney's and Dorothy's marriage, did they have children, if they did, don't name them, just give the dates and gender.

Arthur Cording is interesting as a witness!

possible marriage: Arthur Cording m. Florrie Caldecott in 1940 in Ashton
son b. 1941
Arthur possibly d. 1947 aged 54
Florrie possibly remarried 1972 to Mr Elcock and d. 1994 which puts her birth as 1916.

Florrie Caldecott was b. 1916 , mother's maiden name "Harper"

Now, my personal thought runs like this:
Caldecott/Harper marriage in 1906
last official birth to that couple judging by freebmd was 1918.
This would make it odd to have a large gap to a daughter b. 1926/27, and Florence Amelia (nee Harper) would have been relatively old to be having more children.

Dorothy may be the daughter of another relative - for example their daughter, Martha Ann, b. 1908 but not married until 1931, or someone else in the family, raised as the daughter of John William Caldecott.

Interesting connections & train of thought jorose.
