Hello again,

Go to Lancashire BMD via the link. Click on marriages and search there is a drop down for date range and then enter the name.

It looks as though the Derome/DeRome family came from Westmorland to Manchester.

In Manchester there seem to be some in Hulme/South Manchester but Joseph b 1917 and family are located in North Manchester.

Mmn is just a convenient abbreviation of mother’s maiden name.

[PaulineJ]

Mmn is mothers maiden name.
I can tell you that margery was indexed with surname Gastham, not Eastham in the 1939 index.

Is it really Gastham, I wonder? Perhaps a later document has it wrong.

Parents look likely to be Richard Eastham and Esther Helen Smith, marr Sep qtr 1906 Salford.

Lilian Eastham b Mar qtr 1907 Salford.  Married Sep qtr 1947 Salford to Thomas E Davies.

Death reg May 2006 Lancashire as Lilian Davies, born 8 Jan 1907.

Shows Margery Eastham b East Manchester 1922

Hi have passed info but I was just looking and Margery Eastham b. 1922 and yet  Lillian her sister  you have said was born 1907 !!  Big difference.

I just don't know what I'm doing wrong on Freebmd but can't seem to find anyone births or marriages 😳 will try again tomorrow.

Another "Q"  was the marriage mentioned in one of the posts  and asking if they were Catholic , does it show them in a church wedding ? ( can't remember whose marriage it was) apparently the DeRomes' were strict Catholics.   Thanks again everyone.
