Title: Ord Welwyn Garden City
Post by: MJCG on Sunday 23 August 20 17:05 BST (UK)

Long shot but my great aunt, Beatrice Anne Christie Parker died in Welwyn in 1956. The death was registered by her daughter Marguerite Isobel Ord of Welwyn. Would anyone have any leads.

Many thanks,

Max

Not sure what you are after but we are not allowed to post information including names of anyone possibly still living.

There is a Parker/Ord marriage in 1947 on freebmd that would fit

Hi, I’m new to this so had no idea.  Simply trying to find a branch of the family none of us knew anything about.  Thanks for the lead.

The Ord name often comes from County Durham.

Thanks Barry. Could well be where Marguerite’s husband came from.

Thanks Rosie.  Having gone back on Scotland’s People, it all checks out.  All very intriguing.
