Hello everyone.
I'm sorry about this I don't think I've asked this before. And because I don't know where to post this I just put on this part.
What I'm trying to find out is where or how can I find a certain thing ? I've been trying but I can't find it. I was given at Manchester libary a few weeks ago.
I have a printed document which I'm trying to unlock on the website. ( find my past )
On the document it has this. Patricia owens (Jones ) on the 1939 register. Then it says Edgeley household Newcastle upon Lyme. Staffordshire England.
When I saw this on the computer at the library when a lady was trying to help me with my mum's birth certificate.
She came across this which I'm trying to find. On the item I saw it said unlock.
Please is anyone can help me with this? I honestly have tried to find it.. as I'm trying to find out why my mum and gran would have gone to Newcastle upon Lyme in 1938/ 39
I hope anyone can help me.
Thank you again for your time and help

Remember, when searching, that it's Newcastle-under-Lyme in Staffordshire.
FindMyPast 1939 search is throwing up three Patricia Owens in N-u-L, but keep in mind that if your mother was born in the 1920s-30s then her entry could well be blocked to you. You are better searching for your gran, but you've not given us her name and age as at 1939.

Was her mother called Eveline?
The information is there on the 1939 Register. You need to find a Library which gives free access to Find my Past and you will be able to see the details. The other alternative is to take up the fortnight free trial offer, but don't forget to cancel before the time is up or you will be charged a years subscription.

Hello.
I'm ever so sorry. I forgot to put the details in. 1st my gran was eveline shulman, thats her maiden name. She then married my grandad Alfred evan Jones. Then in 1937 my mum was born. Her name is patrica Jones.
When my gran eveline went to Newcastle upon Lyme. It was 1938/ 39. For what reason I don't know. But from what I saw my gran eveline changed my mum's name from Jones to owens even though she was still married to my grandad Alfred evan Jones. And again I have no idea why she would change my mum's surname from Jones to owens. As she didn't marrie Mr James owens until later on after my grandad passed away.
I thought if someone as passed away you can unlock the name. And as my mum passed away last year.
If there's anything I've not answered please let me know. I think I have answered the questions.
Thank you again for your help and time. I really do appreciate everyone's help thank you so much.
Dorothy.

Dorothy - look at your e-mails - I sent the image of the 1939 entry for Eveline and Patricia in Newcastle under Lyme to you on 6 February 2018.
The title of your original e-mail to me was "Certificate" and was dated 23 January 2018.
"Sue"
