London and Middlesex / Emily RAwlings ( mdn Osborne)
« on: Monday 06 November 23 07:38 GMT (UK)  »
Emily Osborne was born July 1874 in Merriott Somerset, she married Joseph William Rawlings 1892 in Islington,  where they continued to live, and had three sons William, Alfred and Charles.
I have found all about them except the mystery of Emily who seems to disappear around 1932 when she last appears on Elect regs with Joseph her husband and others. After that no sign of her , in 1939 Elect reg Joseph states he is a widower. He died in 1942 Islington. Please can anyone shed any light on what happened to Emily? I have searched for any other marriages and or deaths but came up with zero that would fit. I spoke about 8 yrs ago to Joseph and Emily's  grandson who was abt 8yrs old at time of her disappearance, and has now passed, but he couldn't remember much about her.

« on: Monday 10 July 23 07:13 BST (UK)  »
Going round in circles here so hope someone can help me stop. Frederick T W Sealey b. 1874 in Cheshunt Hertfordshire but in 1881 resides with father Henry a police constable born Charlton Wilts c.1840, mother Emily ( 'Turpin' b. Watford c.1845) and siblings Helen E, Harry Charles, Kate Elizabeth, Albert Edward, George Wm and Sydney John in Sunbury on Thames - BUT then nothing except index from  Royal Chelsea Pensioner Soldier Service naming a Frederick Thomas Walter Sealey b. 1874 nothing else.
Any clues as to what happened to him would be most appreciated.

Midlothian / Marriage 2 Oct.1919 Edinburgh.
« on: Thursday 22 July 21 09:16 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone
Hopefully I'm in right place to ask this question but is someone able to look up this date for a marriage of a Lewis Augustus Page. He was in the navy at the time and just this note of 'marriage 2 Oct.1919 Edinburgh'  is on military record. Born in Ware Hertfordshire and I believe maybe the 'Louis' A. Page who in 1939 lived in Essex with a wife  Mary Anne and died 1969 Essex.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
