To get any further back, I think you need George's marriage as that hopefully will show you if he is Ben's son and so the one born 1897.


Thanks avm! One of the threads needs to be closed to prevent duplication. Threads merged.

After searching the only birth record i came across on find my past that would make sense is:
Mary Elizabeth "goonery" (could be a misspell fpr Gunnery which i found lots of on find my past) born 1897 2 quarter and born in Wigan. This may be her i believe as your right her parents where married after she was born.

I know may was born in wigan as it states on a 1901 census where she is living with her father alfred henry, mother Bessies and sister Nellie. Nellie was born in warrington. Both children came to northampton and lived separatly with aunties and uncle. Unsure reason why and what happened to their parents. I know Alfred's father was a gunner and travelled in the milatary and Alfred was born in wales. However his siblings were born in a woolwich. I think it all connects!

Yes I see.

So her middle initials E G at marriage are likely to stand for Elizabeth Gunnery (or similar).

Goonery is how the GRO have the birth registration (no separate mother’s maiden name, so almost certainly born out of wedlock) but it must be her I agree.

I have ordered Mary Puttnam and George Underwood's wedding certificate so should have more answers soon. I am new to all this so thank you all for your help. My father has also passed away so dont really have much about his family and trying to build up a family tree. Would love to find out if Kathleen's siblings or any reletives are still around in Northampton.

The George Underwood , Parents Ben/Emma Kate, was Bapt 21 Feb 1897 and Birth was 7 Jan 1897
Fathers Occp Finisher
(Source FreeREG)

So doesnt match birth on 1976 death reg.

This George above also died in WW1, War Records info on Anc has same address as 1911 Census where George is with his widowed Mother Emma Kate and siblings.
