What does it say on her Birth Certificate?

And Electoral Rolls won't help?
Women weren't included (i.e. they didn't get the vote) until 1918 (over 30's) and 1928 (over 21), and no birthplaces are recorded!
Garrad (Suffolk, Essex, Somerset), Crocker (Somerset), Vanstone (Devon, Jersey), Sims (Wiltshire), Bridger (Kent)

Good evening to you all and thanks for your prompt replies to my post.

She lived nearly all her life in 15 Hunt street which is on the boarder of North Hammersmith
and North Kensington.

there was talk many years ago that she was born in or near
the Potteries in W11.

We cannot find the B/C but will keep looking.

 would you be kind enough tell me where to look please for future reference.

Many thanks

Kind regards

Tom

Thanks for the info, the answer is yes to your second question.

She moved home when they demolished Hunt St and came to live near me in North Ealing
until she passed away.

Your help is most appreciated.

Many thanks
