I have a family living in Lincolnshire (I think Welton) I am trying to find some more information on if possible. Members of the family (According to the 1939 Register) are: -
Dawn Rose b.1932
John T Rose b.1933
Elizabeth R E Rose b.1906
Rose M Willcox b.1868
Dawn, John and Elizabeth go by the surname Parsons in other entries, Elizabeth changed her name from Gwyneth Rose Elizabeth Parsons in late 1939 (according to the London Gazette), prior to that was known by her married name of Gwyneth Rose Elizabeth Dawe (in 1928) and originally was Gwyneth Rose Elizabeth Willcox born in 1906 in India (of which I have the details).
Question is, how long is she and her children in Lincolnshire for? I am having problems finding her after 1939.
Can anyone help?

It was bare details from the 1939 Register on the free search. But I know Gwyneth's date of birth as 16th August 1906 if her baptism is to be believed.

Indeed it could! Does look like Elizabeth (aka Gwyneth). I'll investigate a little further. Thanks for the help

1964 register for same address has Dawn M, Elizabeth & John L also 1965
John L Rose is with the family from 1955 so he would then also have been able to vote

Where are these electoral rolls from? Kent? And are they on Ancestry or Find My Past?

Got it, thankyou. Something to work with. Much appreciated.

That's good, I did not look for Elizabeth prior to 1953 ;D
Rosie

She might be in Lincolnshire with her mother, and possibly moved after she died.
-
She is at 195 Halfway Street in 1946. You will be lucky to find any form of electoral register during WW2

I have found Rose's death in Kent in 1945. The reason I know it's her as on the probate record online mentions one of Rose's daughters from a previous marriage as the executors. The age is slightly out but that happens as you may well know from experience. Thanks largely to you for your help. This chapter is all but finished and myths into facts.

I love it when a probate helps ;D
