Whitehouse / Davis (Davies)??? marriage 1919
« on: Sunday 16 October 16 17:38 BST (UK) »
Hello - trying to find out more about my husband's great aunt.  Would like some help finding their marriage which I believe was in Sept quarter 1919 in Wolverhampton.  Her name was Beatrice Martha Whitehouse father Thomas (dec'd) born 1893 at Tettenhall died 1981 Birmingham.  Spouse Howard Davis (Davies?) believe he may have been born 1896 but no further details on his family.  Believe they had a daughter in 1930? 

Thanks for any help you are able to provide.
Regards
Sue

Hi Sue,

The marriage record in 1919 records Beatrice's spouse as Harry Davis not Howard.

Did Great Aunt Beatrice defiantly have the surname Davis/Davies?

The death you have in 1981 is for a Beatrice May Davis -

Beatrice May Davis
Birth Date - 27 Apr 1893
Date of Registration - Dec 1981
Age at Death - 88
Registration district - Birmingham
Inferred County - West Midlands
Vol 32 Page 1685

However the Beatrice with Thomas as her father was baptised Beatrice Martha Whitehouse

Beatrice Martha Whitehouse
Christening Date - 24 Apr 1893
Christening Place - Tettenhall, Staffordshire, England
Father - Thomas Whitehouse, Locksmith
Mother - Martha

The problem is that there were two Beatrice M Whitehouse born 1893, Wolverhampton.

Can you confirm which Beatrice is the correct one please?

Glen - thanks.  The exact dob's may help because I need to sort out their marriage. Does the 1939 register confirm any places of birth?  Others have suggested that the 1919 marriage I was told about by a relative is to a Harry so the more information I have the better.  Thanks to all who are trying to help.
Regards
Sue
