Title: Harry Powner and Ethel Turner
Post by: connie powner on Thursday 02 February 12 02:57 GMT (UK)
I was wondering if someone could look up any children with this couple It seems that John Powner married Martha Turner and they had Harold Powner 1918, (*) 1925 and possibly (*) 1932 all in Warwickshire.
I am having trouble locating the children of Harry and Ethel in Foleshill Please let me know if you can be of any assistance Thank you

Hi, go to the site Freebmd and click on births, then put Powner in surname and Turner in Spouse/Mother name, then enter Date range ie 1911 to 1935 and click find, this will throw up all the births of a Powner/ Turner, their are loads!!

I have given it a try but nothing came up. I know for a fact that they had children and I can find a number of them with this combination of parents but can't seem to fit the all together. Any other ideas?

Did I say enter HARRY Powner, just enter Powner!! I also did not specify Foleshill, just in case they moved around the country?

I found the names unfortunately I got exactly what it said and their are so many names for Powner with spouces Turner it is going to be almost impossible for me to match them. Oh well I guess i did learn something today thanks for your patience have a good one.

Hi, the next thing to do is to do same with marriages, to find out just how many Powner's married a Turner in Foleshill, but move Date range back a bit!

Do not be downhearted, remember the only way to confirm which couple had which child is to spend money!

All the best
