Hi
I am at a total loss at what happened to Ellen Elizabeth Reeves b 1917 Cirencester
Reg 51 Entry 245
I believe she was born to Lily Eliza Reeves (no named father)
I have not been able to find her on 1939 Register (she would be 21-22 years old )
Also no evidence of a marriage or a death
I have found a couple of deaths in Gloucestershire around 1960's but both ladies were far to old to be Ellen and may well have married a Reeves.
Any help to get out of this dead end - greatly appreciated.

As it looks like her mother was unmarried could Lily have been adopted or her mother married :-\
Kay
Added - I see from your Anc tree that her mother Lily had other children and remained unmarried - If you had the daughters birth cert you could search the 1939 Register by birth date??

Hi
Her entry in the 1939 register might be closed.

Just a shot in the dark:-
Marriage. Robert J Tottle/Ellen E Reeves. Mar 1943. Wells

Marriage at Cirencester September Qtr 1909
Mabel Elizabeth REEVES
Frederick William SAUNDERS
residence: 1911, 122 Elizabeth Place, Cirencester, Gloucestershire
As Ellen E was registered J/F/M Qtr 1917
1939 Census - removed

I think you have cracked it..
I will pursue the line that Ellen E Reeves was raised by her Aunt and Uncle Mabel Elizabeth Reeves (Saunders) and indeed married a William H Smith in Sep 1939
THANK YOU indeed
