What are their names ?

[brigidmac]

Can anyone decipher Violet JOHNSON s lodgers name after the redacted lines

I don't understand all the crossings out or which is supposed to be the first name .
It could be a Ghanaian name . Clerk

Can't find anyone of similar name elsewhere

Violet  married Milovan Bogidovic
+ Her daughter rose married Davies



But there seem to be a lot of crossings out  and annotations for all of them

[brigidmac]

Her first husband was from Sierra Leone or Ghana so I thought it could be an African name

To me it looks as if Mammatuh was crossed out as surname added as first name
And the name that looks like Gbedemak has been completely deleted
Then a name beginning Kw which is quite.common in Ghana

[Neale1961]

Mamattah Gbedemah

Possibly same person as appears in 1960s electoral rolls as
Mamattah Kawwoo GHEDEMAH

[brigidmac]

Great find Neale

[brigidmac]

Coincidentally
 GBEDEMAH is a Ghanaian name

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Komla_Agbeli_Gbedemah&ved=2ahUKEwjT4fGyrtb9AhWXQUEAHWc8DswQFnoECA8QAQ&usg=AOvVaw057J2yX83GiZ8-JeqOms47

I wonder if the electoral roll was mistranscribed or where this man was between 1939 and 1964 .

Have found a great grandchild and apparently there were 9 children altogether so hope to find more

Will ask for this to be transferred to a Welsh forum to investigate this family further

 Violet Price 1907

Had sister Mary A Price
Their parents are Edwin John PRICE & Agnes SAYCE

1939

This Violet JOHNSON  32 married

Quote from topic mostly about Violet s cousin

 "seven births registered in Newport M for a Johnson/Price combination.

Violet appears to be the eldest, followed by four boys, a girl and another boy.  Don't know if they all relate to the same family as the 1939 shows three redacted.

The births range from 1927 for Violet to 1935 for the youngest."
