Pember married Cocroft in New York and London? 1919

[noo]

I hope someone can help, I am not that proficient at looking at US records as I dont quite understand them or what I should be looking for

I am looking for children of a woman called Selina Maud Pember. I think she married a man called Frederick W Cocroft in 1919. I seem to have found that they married in London as well as New York, is that normal?

I think they had a daughter called ^(*)  Cocroft, born in New York in 1924.

My next problem is that I dont seem to be able to find marriage records for her. Did she marry a Mr Laurent and go on to have a son called Don?

But also, did Selina and Frederick have any more children?

Do American records show the mothers maiden name?

Thanks for any help

It appears that their daughter was alive as of her son's death in 2017, so she may still be living and I removed her name from your post.  No siblings are mentioned in her son's obituary, which can be found on findagrave.com.

What you will find on American records varies by location and time frame, but a birth, marriage, or death record from the 20th century will likely have a mother's maiden name if it is known.

Thanks, I think my problem is that I dont know if that is her son, because I cant seem to put a marriage together which identifes her fathers name which would 'prove' it for me.

Ive just realised I put their daughter as being born in 1924 by mistake, it is actually 1920
