For others who are interested, the 'marriage' was to Lily Ivy Morris age 32 on 21st December 1946 in Birmingham to Richard Colman.


FreeBMD suggests Ronald Colman, rather than Richard?

Yes, sorry, Ronald, my mistake, brain/finger malfunction.  (Too late to edit it.)

If you find that the births are the ones you want, you can add a postem to the free bmd entry, so that others can contact you in the future if they come looking.

Hi everyone I have an update on this. Lily Morris died in 2005, I found her grave yesterday at Witton Cemetery, she’s in a plot with her parents and a Robert Morris. I searched for Tobert Morris and have found out that he was Lily’s son, he passed in 1999 aged 51. While it’s very sad that I found out I’m still trying to locate the other son born. I have Roberts birth certificate and details of his burial. I also have the address that he lived at upto his death 19 years ago. I have been trying to find details of other occupants but have had no joy. If anyone could help me find details or another child born to Lily and Ronald that would be most appreciated

You had previously put:

'Lily possibly had twin sons called Peter and Paul, they were born before the marriage occurred, their surname is Morris and they were registered in April/May/June 1946.'

So this information is wrong and the two sons were born separately?

Have you seen what you think is the other son's registration birth, and which is Robert's?

Have you looked for a will for Lily/Lilian and/or Robert?  There is one for a Lily died August 2005, but not necessarily hers.

Added:
Do you mean the death in Coventry in 1999 of Robert William born 1947?

The twins Peter and Paul were born to a lady called Barbara Morris. I have Roberts birth certificate and it confirms that Lily Morris was his mother and no one listed as the father. Robert did die in Coventry in 1999 and he was born 4th June 1947. I have no clues currently as to who the other brother is

Lily did pass in 2005 in Redditch, that is the correct dearth record

Did you look for wills for them?
