The Common Room / Missing birth records
« on: Sunday 06 January 19 18:36 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone help overcome one of my brick walls please?
My paternal granmother died in 1942 in West Bromwich and was, we believe around 42 at death. This age seems to fit with her marriage certificate which states her name at marriage to be Clara Stokes. There is also a suggestion that her parents never married and as such she could be registered as Clara Boyes.
I cannot find her burial anywhere so thought I would track from the other end but I cannot locate her birth either - at present she exists when she married my grandad, had her children and when she actually died but I cant find her before or after!
Any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated.
