Ruth Tollerton
« on: Sunday 17 December 17 11:08 GMT (UK) »
Hello

Does anyone recognise this name?

Ruth Tollerton was born about 1913 probably in the Bradford, West Yorkshire area. She had a boy born 1936 at Bradford and she lived at Windhill, Shipley, West Yorkshire

Thanks

Welcome to rootschat  :)

We have to be careful as this person could still be living and rootschat policy does not allow us to give details.  I can only see one person of that name on freebmd, they appear to have married in the 1950's. 

What are you trying to find out  :-\

ADDED
I think she may have died in 1975  :(

You can find her birth on free bmd -
https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

If you look for births from 1910 to 1916 (in case your estimation of 1913 is slightly out)
you will find only one possible birth - in 1916.

If you then look on the free 1939 register search for Ruth Tollerton born 1916, you will see her under 2 surnames, one being her updated surname on her marriage.

Free bmd also shows her death, but you need to do the sums to work it out.  (Her birth on free bmd was in June quarter of 1916, so born somewhere between March and June).  The death in 1975 for Ruth Gould in Blackpool refers to a birth date of 12th April 1916.

There is probate for her naming her address in Blackpool, search for it here for more information:

If you search on free bmd for possible siblings for her, there looks like one, Jack Tollerton born 1919.

He appears to die in Canada:
Jack Tollerton born 23rd July 1919, died 16th November 2011, buried in Boundary Bay Cemetery
at Tsawwassen, Greater Vancouver Regional District, British Columbia, Canada
