Dorothy Sarah Jane nee Adams Relf bc1889 Patcham
« on: Friday 17 March 17 12:49 GMT (UK) »
The above appears on the 1891-1911 censuses as Sarah, Sarah J and suddenly Dorothy and as being born 1889 but I can't find a birth record for her. She was the daughter of Walter Adams 1856-1919 and Sarah Elizabeth White 1882-1941; she married Samuel George Relf Q4 1922 Brighton; he died 27 Oct 1931 Wandsworth.
I am unable to find a birth or death record for her?

Might be groom but on the 1939 register gives dob as 04 Apr 1893 if that is the correct one.

We can ignore that marriage as it was the Sarah Ann Relf  born in   Eastbourne.

Do you know how Samuel's executor Jessamine Naomi Brooker (widow) fits into the picture?

If she is the Jessamine N Brooker who died in Eastbourne in 1949 aged 61 she'd be much the same age as Sarah/Dorothy.

She married Samuel Relf in 1922
Either he didn't use his middle name when he married, or Samuel George Relf is a different person.
