Title: Wright/Dunn Marriage in Chertsey 1920
Post by: mitchmorgan on Thursday 21 June 12 20:35 BST (UK)
My Great Aunt Lena Dunn b 1894 married John W Wright b c1895 in Chertsey Surrey June 1920. My Uncle remembers her having 2 children. She married in Chertsey, lived in Cheltenham and died in Walton on Thames. I have her death certificate but it only showed a nephew as the informant not a child as I was hoping. There are lots of children for Wright/Dunn on Free BMD and not sure if anyone could narrow it down for me?
Many thanks for reading this
Michelle

Hi Victor
Thanks for looking......I've seen Joseph C Wright too but can't assume he's their child although Lena & John Wright did live in Cheltenham at some point in their lives. They ran a Pub/Hotel called the Pittville Hotel.
Thanks

Hi,
Having never been, if I went to Gloucester Archives would I find out anything other than what's available on the internet??

Hi Michelle,
I repeat, this is an ONLY child to WRIGHT/DUNN. There are NO other birth entries. Go to the following website to check:
ww3.gloucestershire.gov.uk
Glos Archives (GA) hold the parish records for Gloucestershire and is the same as any County Records Office. I do free lookups at GA if I can help?
