Electoral Roll search
« on: Monday 24 April 17 13:33 BST (UK) »
I have a family living in Lincolnshire (I think Welton) I am trying to find some more information on if possible. Members of the family (According to the 1939 Register) are: -

Dawn Rose b.1932
John T Rose b.1933
Elizabeth R E Rose b.1906
Rose M Willcox b.1868

Dawn, John and Elizabeth go by the surname Parsons in other entries, Elizabeth changed her name from Gwyneth Rose Elizabeth Parsons in late 1939 (according to the London Gazette), prior to that was known by her married name of Gwyneth Rose Elizabeth Dawe (in 1928) and originally was Gwyneth Rose Elizabeth Willcox born in 1906 in India (of which I have the details).

Question is, how long is she and her children in Lincolnshire for? I am having problems finding her after 1939.

Can anyone help?

It was bare details from the 1939 Register on the free search. But I know Gwyneth's date of birth as 16th August 1906 if her baptism is to be believed.

Indeed it could! Does look like Elizabeth (aka Gwyneth). I'll investigate a little further. Thanks for the help
