Suzanne C Jeannot /Teann 1939 Register
« on: Sunday 07 April 24 11:25 BST (UK) »
Hello,
Suzanne C Jeannot born 5/7/1915 was listed as a border living with Elizabeth A Higgs a distant cousin of mine and her husband in Surrey.
Suzanne's occupation was listed as a stenographer/foreign correspondant although Ancestry has her transcribed as Suzanne C Teann.
Over the years I have always wondered and researched where she originated from and what happened to her with no joy.
Would anyone be able to find out any other information on this lady.
Many thanks in advance.
Helen.

The name sounds as though she may have been born in another country - possibly France

I thought it odd for her to be described as a Boarder in the 1939 register. So I looked and it does not say anything that I can see about whether she is Lodger, Boarder or Friend or Visitor.
It shows she was Single.
Her job is said to be "Steno Dactylo" which is French and translates into English as Shorthand Typist and into USAian as Stenographer.
So it is likely she was from France or some other country where they spoke French - Belgium, Switzerland and many French Colonies.
Might be worth putting a query on the French board; if there is one.
