Edie 🤷‍♀️ Smith

[Ladyhawk]

The Ernest Smith with Annie in 1939 was, as stated earlier, born 31/8/1913 and he died in March 1993 in Nottingham with wife Annie born 6/8/1916 dying March 2007 Nottingham so proof that the couple located in 1939 at Peterborough did indeed move on to Nottingham.

Added - there are other male/female Smith/Dooley births after 1913 but none that I can see with the name Edie or Edith Smith

Ernest Smith married Anne Carden, also from Manchester. I have very little information about my family.

A tree on Ancestry is the OP's own - i.e. Vicky parry - and she already has this information of birth/death dates which we've spent time researching on her behalf.   Last signed into Ancestry last month!

If you search “refugee committee” in the newspapers for 1939 it is apparent just about every town had one.

Thank you,Annette- The reason I asked the same questions is because my family tree is so complicated. The best thing for me to do I think is ask a professional to have a look at it.

I think a professional will say the same as us - get that marriage certificate. Or maybe they’ll get it for you and charge a premium!

My thoughts too 
Even if it is complicated after the marriage, it will give a starting point to trace Ernest back.
