Searching for Patricia

[tweekymum63]

I am not sure who the witnesses are, I don't think they are related to either Patricia or
harry because the surnames are different .... they are H. Dyball and W. Kimmenu, I suspect they could be co workers as both Patricia and Harry, listed their address at the time of the marriage as The Hampdon club, Polygon Rd, London. I have done a little bit of research on the Hampdon Club and discovered that it was  gentlemen's clubs. Patricia's occupation was Still Room Maid and Harry's was Club Cook.

Bearing  in  mind  the  marriage  was  so  near  to 1939  I  think  I  would  be inclined to  look on 1939  for the  witnesses

No view of  the witnesses on 1939, in fact kimmenu no trace but  I  stand  to be  corrected

Could Patricia have been born in Ireland ?

Therr is no Irish Strand in dad's DNA. Only Scottish 56% and Northern England and Europe 31% . Patricia is my dad's birth mother.

Ah, Thanks. In light of your reply, Instead of Ireland, has a Scottish birth been considered ?

[tweekymum63]

To date I've not been able to find anything other than a 1939 Registry entry giving a DofB 25.12.1911 and an occupation of Domestic.  It say at that time she resides in Featherstone West Riding Yorkshire but no place of birth.  I've been researching her for about 15yrs..

Just  got  me  thinking, if ,  and  it  isn't a sure date, but if  we assume she  was  born 1912, consider  her  father  might  have  been born 20 to  30  years before  and  start looking  for  him  from  about 1880  ish, perhaps  Scotland,  just  a  thought
