no trace of two births 1920's
« on: Friday 05 April 24 12:00 BST (UK) »
Hello fellow genealogists. Can you possibly help with my brick wall.

I am trying to locate a person / family in 1921 and then two births of children thereafter.

Rowena (Betty) Acton born 1892 Chorlton. Married Charles Heywood Oct 1912, widowed then married Walter Ernest Jones 1917. two boys of marriage Edward 1917 and Ernest 1920.

Not sure when or if they got divorced but rowena then entered a relationship with Johannes Mijnardus Coenen 1894 - 1956 and they had 5 children
Maurice Joseph Coenen - 1923
Kenneth Coenen - 1926
Eric T Coenen - 1929
Betty Coenen - 1933
Alan Coenen - 1937

I am not able to find Betty in the 1921 census, nor the two jones children.

In addition I can not find Maurice nor Kenneth birth records.

JM Coenen had two previous relationships, with Mary Jane Gay Nowell, who he abandoned with two small girls, and Florence L Kerr, who he never married but had two boys Joseph and Robert. Interestingly J M Coenen put the wrong mothers name on the birth certificates of Joe and Robert, being a mix of his still legal wife and the boys actual mother - Mary Florence Kerr.

Can you help find Betty and her first two boys births  and possibly a marriage for J M Coenen and Rowena (Betty)
Many thanks for your time. Gail

Are any of the 3 younger children still alive?  If so - their names need to be removed from your post as Rootschat has a strict no living persons policy.  My sister was b 1929 & is still alive

The two Jones boys are with Betty’s parents in 1921. Probably can’t give more details than that.
