Missing Person
« on: Tuesday 24 October 23 15:08 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone,

I'm trying to find a birth record for Maud Lillie Bateman. She is aged 6 in the 1921 Census, living with her father, Bertie, her step-mother Hilda and two brothers and noted as being born in Nottingham.

She's a bit of a mystery as she's missing from a family photo taken in 1917; my Grandmother is included on the photo & she was adamant that she was the only girl on that side of the family; all her maternal cousins were boys.

The family did move around a lot; children were born in Aylsham, Nottingham and London; Maud's mother died in 1917 in Suffolk

thank you,
cally

Presumably she's Hilda's daughter from a previous relationship. Is she the Lillie Maud Hemsley/ Maud L Pratt in the 1939 register? Born 20 August 1914.

I don't know why I didn't think of a previous marriage, probably because she's listed as a daughter with the same surname.

Thank you

Hello... :)

From what has already been found this link may help further confirm this is your family.

https://apps.gedling.gov.uk/bacas/search.aspx

If you choose Redhill from the dropdown list and put in grave number 2525 there are four burials.
