Post by: dotty on Monday 07 October 19 17:28 BST (UK)
Tryin g to find any info on Winifred Stevenson[nee Mcnally] wife of Alred Stevenson stage name Al Stevens known as being the pantomime cat in the1950/1960.It is known that the couple worked at Voryn Hall Holiday Camp until Alfred's death in 1968 and from a newspaper article Winifred was going to carry on in the management.I think the camp closed in 1970[I maybe wrong on that info] and from this date no info can be found on Winifred.The couple originated fro around Manchester -did Winifred remarry ?Did she stay and die in Wales.Any info much appreciated

Have you looked for a remarriage or death online?

No info given re Winifred's birthyear - death reg shows Alfred was b 1924 and there is a birth reg in Manchester for a Winifred McNally in 1924 - is that the correct birthyear?   They married 1945

Tried looking for a remarriage.Found a burial 1980  in Manchester but that wasn't the right lady.Thought we had found her on the 1939 but there was Dean by the side of it and couldn't find any connection with that name.One paper in 1958 mentiond them living in Surrey  but when Alfred died they were living in the bungalow at the camp.He was cremated in Wales .

Thanks

Can you confirm her birthyear as per my reply above

In the absence of a death or remarriage - there is always the possibility she is still alive.  Online deaths coverage to 2007 then a partial index from 2008
