1939 query
« on: Wednesday 09 December 15 14:24 GMT (UK) »
Sorry if the answer to this is somewhere else, a quick hunt hasn't turned it up.

I've not got a FindMyPast sub so paid for one household to be "opened" (In fact I've got several households on the same page all open together but that's not a complaint!)

My query - the name of one of the adults in the house is struck through with red pen. On the opposite fold of the page I can see in red pen the words "Entry reopened RM 18" -- clearly there's more that I can't see. Underneath that, in black, it seems to say "See (NHS 1246531 " - again I can't see the rest of this line. The adult in question is listed with her family in subsequent electoral roles in the 1950s.

Anyone got any ideas re the significance of this?
Bradbury (Sedgeley, Bilston, Warrington)
Cooper (Sedgeley, Bilston)
Kilner/Kilmer (Leic, Notts)
Greenfield (Liverpool)
Holyland (Anywhere and everywhere, also Holiland Holliland Hollyland)
Pryce/Price (Welshpool, Liverpool)
Rawson (Leicester)
Upton (Desford, Leics)
Partrick (Vera and George, Leicester)
Marshall (Westmorland, Cheshire/Leicester)

The 1939 register was "updated" until 1991 so could the name be a change of name following marriage?
Wilson in the Lancaster area
Clegg in Todmorden
Adamson in Edinburgh
Miller in Edinburgh
Nunn in Norfolk and Co Durham
Smith in Glasgow
Haig in Peebles/Edinburgh
Also Nelson, Gardener, Garnett, Blair, Coleman, Aaronson and many more as the branches expand!

To state the obvious women are more likely  to have amendments on the 1939 Index than men. I am working on one right now. In the family of Harry Foster an amputee from World War 1  He is Retired. Probably living off an Army Pension.  He has a female living with him Margaret Jones (Foster) aged 25. I have not worked out who Margaret is yet. Possibly a daughter but I cannot find her in the Evesham area .
