Ref reply 8 - do you have the adoption record?
Yes I have it. It simply says that after hearing the evidence of the person's involved, the adoption was allowed to procede. I wonder if the county court involved might have a full transcript in their archive?

Hi,

Does the death certificate for Thomas Carl Jones in 1987 give any clues as to his wife's whereabouts? Was he a widower, who registered his death?

Assuming she died earlier a potential maybe - Mary F Jones Age 40 Dec Quarter 1951  East Ham Vol 5a page 26. Or is it possible her death could have been registered with the surname Watson - Mary F Watson Age 55 March Quarter 1967 Birmingham Vol 9c Page 346



Both a bit of a long shot I'm afraid.

Thank you. 

There's a Thomas Carl Jones born 15 Aug 1914 who died 1987 Leeds district but would need to check his birth date too.

Yes that seems to match if they were in London in 1939?
Yes... That's him his full DOB was 15.08.14. I don't know whether they remained together after the adoption and had further children, or if they went their seperate ways.

She then appears in the 1939 register (as Mary Fullward Jones)

Do you have her exact date of birth?  That will help with a death as Jones is such a common surname.

There are other Jones/Watson births around 1941 but these could easily belong to another couple with the same surnames.
Yes I do....Exact DOB 09.05.11

Hi.... I have in my tree a Mary Fullwood Watson b.1911 Basford Notts.. She was my biological maternal grandmother although I never knew her as my Mother was adopted. I have her birth (1911) I also have her marriage to Thomas Carl Jones in 1936. She then appears in the 1939 register (as Mary Fullward Jones) with husband Thomas Carl. They had a child in September 1941  (my Mother) in Ilkeston Derbyshire. She was named Olwyn Maureen Jones and became Maureen Olwyn Harrison after the adoption in 1943. I can find no further records for her so I don't know if she any more children or re-married or any info on her death. I was hoping the more experienced amongst you may be able to shed some light on what became of her after my mothers birth and subsequent adoption. Any assistance would be most welcome......Alan
