Anyone able to look at the birth date recorded for Evelyn M Kebby on the death record in 1989? Hoping it's 25th March 1919

Thanks JJ, because Evelyn Poole 's birth was 25th Mar 1918 in the 1939 register and I now think that that should have been recorded as 1919 which would fit with the birth and second marriage that I have already posted

Looks very promising  :)

Interestingly, there is an Eliza Roberts (born 1876) and a George Roberts (born 1871) living in Bell Street Kingsclere and Whitchurch RD Hampshire in 1939, wonder if they are related to Evelyn somehow.

I'll endeavour to reply to everyone's input separately - when I get time, there's a lot to work through here! But in the meantime - huge thanks. I was pleased at how far I'd managed to get just from the basic information that my dad was adopted - but in a matter of hours I have so much more to work with. What a fine bunch of folk!  :D

You have a court document from the adoption hearing for Terence James Poole, at 1947.

How is mother recorded on this document. Is mother named.....does mother sign this document.
