Hello all,
Newcomer here. I've been doing bits of research into my family over the last 5 years or so and wondering if anybody could shed some light on some annotations on the 1939 register and there meaning please.
There has always been talk in our family that my Grandad, Charles Bryan Reynolds b. 02/04/29 d. 25/06/12 had an adopted brother. Having now found my Great Grandad James Reynolds b. 05/10/02 I have found him on the 1939 register (attached).
There are 2 lines that I believe relate to the adoption.
The adoption is of Bryan F Williamson b. 08/09/1938
In red there is a change of surname to Reynolds with an annotation of By Adopt. IC 04/07/46
Then in green there is a change to his first name to Michael B F with the annotations 1/2 M/C BRA 20/06/68
I assume this means that he was adopted in 1946 but unsure what the 1/2MC means? Also on the same record is a Kathleen Williamson b. 04/09/09. Both say they are Single at the time of the register. Next to Kathleen's entry is Md 30 5 49 KEA. Again i assume this means married but unsure. Happy for nay help please. Thanks
