My husbands Mothers side came from Great Dunmow in Essex.
I have found most of the children of Percy Valentine STOCK (1895-1976) and Florence Ellen REEVE (1902-1981)=David, Marina, William and Patrick but we know that Florence also had a child called Joy (about 1930) but we are not sure if she was Percys child. (Florence and Percy married in 1931) I have tried to find her birth and also we know Joy married but cannot find a marriage either so if any one can find out anything about her,it would be great, thanks. It is just that my husbands mum remembers her well but I have not been able to put her on the tree yet...

Rootschat has a strict no living persons policy & without evidence that she is deceased - no info can be posted here. You need to remove her name from your post
Also - the children you name above were born between 1936 - 1943 so could still be living so their names should also be removed unless you can provide info of their deaths. Marina died 1999
Had Percy been married previously? There is a 1914 marriage in Cambridge to a Florence M A Gifford
-
Florence May Avis Gifford was born 1887 Cambridge & died 1977 Cambridge.
Interestingly - shown as married on the 1939 register ??
No other Percy V Stock birth so was the 1931 marriage bigamous or did they divorce?

This one was born in 1886, registered as just Percy but was Percy V. on census and Percy Valentine in later life. He lived and died in Cambridgeshire.

Just observation really.
Percy Stock 1886-1960 was by himself in 1939 as his wife Florence was a nurse and at work. This Percy probably adopted the Valentine second name as he was born on the 14th Feb -Valentine's day. He and Florence had children as per gro index and freebmd.
Percy Valentine Stock & Florence Reeve info is known.
As for the daughter born c1930's could she have been J**ce.

Could it be that she just was a very very close friend. There is a neighbour by that name in the 1939

Good point Mckha489, could well be.

No, there is a redacted entry which is unaccounted for in birth registrations.

Quite right Debra.
There is a birth of a J P m R in 1930's , but probably a red herring!!

Thanks everyone...forgot you cannot help with possible still living people, so will remove all once I have done this.
Do not think Percy married twice so unless J was his first wifes child but we think her mum was definitely Florence Reeve and no her name is not J***e. I will have another look on the 1939 census although thought I had looked everywhere for her...anyway thanks again.
