1939 National Register - Annotations and Cross References
« on: Tuesday 07 June 16 07:30 BST (UK) »
Hi,
Please can anyone explain some annotations on this 1939 National Register entry;
1)  The text in Blue " JM/C BLB 24758 CLARK"  Could that be another change to married name in 1969 ?
2)  I understand the change from Hindley  to DAVIES, that was a marriage in 1942.
3)  The red ??? text between 17 Dec and 12
4)  Over the page fold does "Special Constable" refer to the entry for Richard Davies?
5)  "See Page".  How frustrating!  Is there a way to view the rest of the text ? How would I get to view that page?

thanks for your assistance., Chris

In the first place, there was no census in 1939! ;D

I presume you are referring to the 1939 National Register?

I can't explain all the markings, but the blue/green marking looks to me more like  ½M/c rather than JM/C.  Could it mean they received half a married couple's rations? 

As for it being a census, what's your definition of a census?

A census is a snapshot, taken on a single night/day.

The 1939 National Register was continually updated until the early 1990's.

What would the reason be  to get half of a married couples ration?

Was there a different ration for adult males  as opposed to adult female?

  Initially the 1939 register was intended for wartime purposes.

It was only later AFTER the war  that someone thought it could be used for another purpose.   The name changed.

              What happened to men  who had not been recorded on the 1939 Register   because they were Merchant Navy officers or men?

If they weren't on the Register, then they didn't get a National Identity card, and no Ration Book.

I think you'll find they were on the Register! ;D

If they were away at sea,  then they were correctly not recorded as living at their "home"  address.
