The Common Room / Re: GRO Missing Years Death

It`s very puzzling.

However, I`ve already received a reply from FreeBMD, also stumped!!

I think I had Patrick in a hostel in Margam, along with a John Street, not sure but that "could" have been in second half 1950s.although  I`ve managed to mislay the information.

Thanks

Thanks everyone.

I had seen the Dungarvan Patrick Street but discounted him.

The only precise information I have is that he appears on a cert in Swansea in 1950, and that he was Irish. The address then was the same as the Electoral rolls.

I have no idea as to age.

I was going to ringthe Register office but I`ve had too much going on!!
However, I`ve sent an email to FreeBMD just in the offchance that he could have been missed.

Thank you for all the replies.

It was one of his children that told me the date and place.

I had checked for him on FreeBMd one time but didn`t try again as I realised it was in the missing years.

I`ve searched FreeBMD from 1970 to 1974 and came across a Peter Joseph Stack. The person who gave me the information wouldn`t have mixed Stack with Street.

It`s possible that the Heywood Joseph or vice versa on the 1939 is a query as I know for sure that  Patrick Street was Irish, but definitely in Swansea in 1950, but I`ll follow it up.

I`m going to tkae Girl Guide`s advice and contact the Registrar`s office.(if you order a death cerificate from them by phone it`s £35 !!! )

Thanks everybody!!

Please could someone do a look up for a death for me, so that I can buy the cert.?

The name is Patrick Joseph Street, he died in Swansea in 1972

Oh, thank you so much. I was tired when I was doing it last night, but had the sense, for once, to query it before taking action.

Only fine-ish!!

I`m still getting pop ups about the old email address, but I an deal with that.

Yhe thing is that I`ve checked my account with my current address and it says all is active with expiry date but at the side is a blue icon saying add device.

 Wnen I click on it it says what wouuld you like to protect,  and underneath it says download. Have I missed something as I thought that as it says on the welocme page that I am protected there was nothing else to do.

Than you all for your time!

I was told that Doris was born in Wales, but it doesn`t seem likely now.

I looked at the Cardiff one, with the mother Martin. Tnere were 2 other daughters in this family, one died at 1year old, the other Florence didn`t marry a Crawford, or even remarry. I also checked lots of others and realised I needed help!

I heven`t an Ancestry subscription, will go ahead with that as I will struggle to find time to go to the library, and the normal Anc is better anyway.

Thanks again all, going to follow up all your information.

The Common Room / Doris Reed Swansea/London
« on: Monday 08 April 24 19:20 BST (UK)  »
Please help!

I`ve a Doris Reed on an official document living at  Trafalgar Terreace in Swansea in 1950, she`s also on the Electoral Roll. At this time she was approximately 38 years old.

Doris left this address, I think, in the autumn of 1952.

I have some letters written by Doris with various addresses.

29th January 1953 Doris` address was 71 Mallinson Road Battersea SW11, having left her sister`s home, also in Battersea. She gives her sister`s name only as Mrs. Crawford.

14th March 1953 Doris was at the Mount Royal Hotel, Marble Arch ( now the Thistle)

5th May 1953 Doris was at 357 Acton Lane, Acton.

From the 10th June 1953 until the 11th December Doris was back at the Mount Royal Hotel.

I was told that Doris was born in Wales. The only one I could find searching for a 1912 birth +/- 2 years was in Cardiff.

I have tried to work sideways with a Reed marriage to a Crawford looking for her sister but without success.

I`ve also emailed the hotel group to see if there was any information they might hold, but no reply.

I`m hoping that a Rootschatter will read this and think they  might have a connection.

Thanks in anticipation !!
