Am looking for any info on Yvonne M Sandbrook born 1913. Parents were William Henry Sandbrook who was an Estate Agent and lived at Oak Lodge Edgware and Margaret Alice Newman Cutler
Thanks

Seems her birth reg has been transcribed as
Yvonne W Sandbrook
mother's maiden name Cutler
Sept qtr 1913
Hampstead
1a 1059
image looks like a possible "M"
can't find anything after birth reg??

I had a close look and think it's definitely an M, would stand to reason as her mother was Margaret. I found a marriage of an Yvonne M Sandbrook to a Robert A Done in 1980 but that would have made her 67 when she married, not unheard of maybe she was a late starter!

I think the marriage reg you found was for (or transcribed as ) Yvonne H Sandbrook
doubt it is your Yvonne as it seems they had at least 2 children in the 1980's
Wonder if she went abroad??
Do you know where her parents died ??

I have just discovered the outcome of that marriage myself!
her father William Henry Sandbrook died in 1932 and lived at 25 Christchurch Avenue Brondesbury and her mother died in 1950 same reg district so presume living at the same address.

Thanks for all your help Suz, I had picked up the will details on Ancestry, do you know how I can get a copy? Pity the records didn't go on a few years as she would have been mentioned in her Mother's as she was an only child, providing she was still alive and they hadn't fallen out!

Hi Wint
You can apply to Her Majesty's Courts & Tribunal Services for a copy.

I may be at Holborn next week and can check to see if there's an entry for Margaret.

Hi Dawn, Thanks for this, if you are at Holborn that would be great. I live in Cornwall so not really accessible for me at the moment.
