Wonder if the wife of Henry Shanklin was Eva Raine Smith born 1895 Croscdale, Durham and not Cumberland ???
There were 4 children born to Shanklin - Smith at Wigton.
Henry born June 1921 died in WW2 - 10b 1250
a daughter "I" born March 1923 (10b 1085) - married September 1950 (1a 547 - Wigton)
A son "C" born December 1929 (10b 629) - married Sept 1951 (1a510 - Wigton )
a daughter "J" born June 1932 (10b 913) - possible marriage Q4 1953 to David T Bryant. David T bryant passed away born Q4 Falmouth Somerset passed away December 1955 Falmouth Cornwall - 7a 25
Could have been a daughter born March 1955 to this couple - Falmouth 7a 26
"J" possible remarriage Q4 - Wigton - 1a 337 - Wigton Cumberland.
Sandra
-
Check free bmd and it should show you a son and 2 daughters born at Wigton - to the son "C"
1952/1954/1966
Perhaps a son born 1954 to the daughter "I"
A few avenues for you to follow up.

This 1851 census shows Henry with parents John and Catherine in Wigton Cumberland - under the surname Shankland - so it looks like the correct family.

Happy Easter Pru.
Would be really great if you could return and let us know if we are completed on this one now. ???
Perhaps the thread could be moved to Cumberland, hopefully other researchers may come along to contact you.

Hi Sandra, not wasted a few interesting things on here. Only thing i’ve Not heard of Gertrude. And I’m in contact with 'J' and he not every mention her. But I will ask him next time I email him.
-
Gertrude was the first wife of "J" - reply 21 I think - His second wife is mentioned in the obituary of Beth.
I have sent a copy of first marriage by pm. Obviously still living and we cannot mention "living people" on this site hence reference to "J"
