Minnie and her daughter are on the Register, wrongly listed as surname Loving on Ancestry. Must admit that it does look like that name. but the birth date does not match the 1977 death so not sure.

Oops. I pressed enter by mistake.
Loring is not supposed to be her actual surname according to other sources, and her date of birth varies from 1904 to 1908 to 12/5/1915. No Elizabeth Loring born those years on the GRO Index which does seem to say her birth name was not Loring. Which makes one wonder who Minnie is, has she changed her name too, and is she actually the mother.

Have you got the Dec 1942 death certificate for Minnie and worked out why it seems to have her primary surname as HILL ?

Are you searching for Elizabeth Ann Loring or Minnie?
You mentioned ‘daughter’ earlier and I was going to ask if she was definitely Minnie’s daughter but you might be doubting that as above.  :-\

More usually known as "Elisabeth Ann" (of the Sunday Dispatch), wrote some books, made a record or two

Apart from slimming, it seems that E A Loring had a big interest in the subject of adoption!

She seems to have been an interesting lady.
They also had someone called Eulalie Lala Adamson with them. Goodness knows who she was!

1939 register explains her relationship - well the transcription on my site isn’t  quite right but you can read her occupation.

She is another elusive person. In 1945 she is elsewhere.
