Alfred + Hettie Goodfellow marriage? 1905

Have you looked for Goodfellow births in the right area after 1911?

In theory your couple could still have had children that perhaps died young.  Realise it will be hard to prove the right parents without certificates but if there were any with similar names could be worth following up.

Only 8 Goodfellows registered in Maidenhead from 1911-1921, 3 of them are children of Magnus Goodfellow and Margaret A Woolfenden, and the other 4 are children of Arthur Goodfellow and Daisy Reeves (my 2x great grandparents! So already accounted for ) the final is a daughter of Harry Goodfellow and Annie Cottrell. 1921 Census also says Alfred & Hettie had no minor dependents at the time, so very likely no children!

1939 Reg says she was born in Windsor 29 June 1878,

It doesn't show birth places in 1939 does it?

There's a Hetty Maria Davis baptised in Burbage Wilts 8 Sep 1878. 

Birth reg under Henrietta Maria.  No ancestry hints for her after 1891.

Apologies you're right, the censuses list her pob as Windsor but the 39 Reg her dob. I will have a nosy at Hetty Maria Davis though, thank you!

Thank you for all your mind-bending hard work today John! So sorry for sending you down such a tough rabbit hole. Wouldn't be the first time there's a bigamous marriage amongst the Goodfellows lol, do let me know what else you come up with as it may be worth having a look!

Last chance May have waited until a previous partner died??

That one is Hetty A and there is a Hetty A Greenfield born Hackney 1920 so likely to be that one 

Hetty Goodfellow is in Hackney 1946 with other Greenfields.

What about the little chap who is with them in 1939 - any clues with him?

His parents

Can't see any obvious connection - possibly an evacuee

Yeah evacuee was my assumption too. Definately a tough pair to crack.

We don't know what year they met but was just thinking about the 1901.  You said he was working at a Pub in London so could have a look at houses nearby to see if there are any likely candidates for her.
Maybe even in the same pub (but that would be too easy!) 

I wonder why they all have Windsor as birthplace in 1911 - is that right for Frank or not

Appears to be correct from 1861-1911 census all state Windson


Name:   Frank Goodfellow
Registration Date:   1854
Quarter of the Year:   Oct-Nov-Dec
Registration Place:   Windsor, Berkshire, England

Yes you're right John. 

I was wondering if both the chaps birthplaces had been wrong then so might Hetties which would make it even harder to find out who she was.

I don't suppose Alfred's death would help (assuming he died first and she was the informant)
