Louisa Maud Howes
« on: Sunday 15 December 19 15:18 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone help..

I am trying to find out anything I can about Louisa Maud Howes. She would have been my Great Grandmother.
My Grandmother was Winifred Louisa Maud Howes - then become a Jones when married my Granddad.

My Grandmother was born in Brentford Workhouse as Louisa was an unmarried Mother.
She had already had a child out of wedlock and was sent to work in Richmond, Surrey as a housemaid..

What information does her marriage give. 

It is better if you type out the details rather than posting snapshots of your tree, the dates on the image are not that clear.  :)

Just the snapshot of tree seems wrong to me:

1. Louisa Maud Howes shown born 1898 - where has this date come from?
2. Winifred Louisa Maud shown as Winifred M. (??) and that she died 10/11/1996 Feltham, Middx. but there is no corresponding death entry for this??
3. Alfred Jones (born 28/8/1914 per 1939 register) shown died 19/6/1966 but there is no corresponding death entry for someone of this name who was born in 1914??

Any tree needs to be substantiated by 'facts' and from the threads I've read it has all been done by family hearsay, census and few, if any, certificates.   

Was the marriage certificate for Alfred Jones and Winifred Louisa Maud Howes obtained as you said you would back in September?

No corresponding death because it has not been mentioned that she remarried as Winifred M Jones to Henry A Cowell in 1983.

I haven't checked out the details for verification, just wondering if this is the family of Louisa Maude, mother of Winifred:

Reginald Mowling Howes was born circa 1890, at birth place, to John Howes and Annie Maria Howes (born Cowling).
John was born on November 14 1828, in Bethnal Green, Middlesex, England.
Annie was born in 1848, in France.
Reginald had 11 siblings: George James Howes, Louisa Maud Howes and 9 other siblings.
Reginald passed away in month 1977, at age 87 at death place.
