Allens of Huddersfield
« on: Monday 23 January 17 09:52 GMT (UK) »
Hi
I am desperately trying to trace some of my more recent relations and I have discovered that my grandfathers aunt, uncle and cousin died in Huddersfield. I am really interested in info too as there appears to be a genetic link to brain aneurysms so finding them could possibly save their lives as well.
Just as a matter of interest my grandfathers father is unknown and on his wedding certificate he gives his mother his maternal aunts name as a maiden name!

The details I have are as follows
Robert C Allen
b 1893 Foulsham, Norfolk d 1980 Huddersfield, Yorkshire
m
Eleanor H Allen (nee Tuck)
b 1890 Cawston, Norfolk d?

their only child I have found (although there could be others)
Geoffrey R J Allen
b1920 Aylsham, Norfolk d nov 2001 Huddersfield

Any information about the family, grave location, inscription ect would be much appreciated
Thanks so much

Geoffrey married in 1944 in Huddersfield (see freebmd) but there are no births in Huddersfield with that mothers maiden name (Simpson)

I think this is her death

Audrey Allen aged 60 born 14 Jun 1925 death reg April 1986  Huddersfield
Volume   4
Page    1326

A possible birth for her

Births September qtr 1925 
Audrey Simpson  mothers maiden name Crowther    Huddersfield    9a   433
