Ronald Vernon Bennett Born 4/4/1921 in poole Dorset and died 1964 in Christchurch
I believe he married Rose Cresswell born 14/7/1919 in Tynemouth Northumberland,mothers maiden name was Dowdall.
I cannot find any record for the marriage or any details of birth
on ronald or what happened to Rose after 1943.
Please Help.
\many thanks.
-
If you don't have his birth cert. where has his birth date come from?
I can't see him on the 1939 register.
-
Yes he may have been born 1 July 1925 and died 1988 Staffordshire.
Possible Marriage 1949 Essex to Rosina M HILL, may be a Widow?
-
Ignore the Staffs Ronald as he married there.
-
One on 1939 for a Rose Cresswell with that birth date has not been updated with a married name. That is no proof that she did not marry, a family members entry was not updated and I have every proof that she married ;D
-
Fangio says his DOB came from an Ancestry tree.
I can see just one but there's no middle name or DOB
just the marriage to Rose Cresswell with no other details.
So that begs the question what info do you have on Robert Vernon Bennett
& where has it come from within your own research?

Where do you have Rose mentioned in 1943, was she Cresswell or Bennett
-
I had a PM from fangio stating that Rose was still 'Cresswell' in 1943. She was linked to the Queen Alexandra Imperial Military service and Mount Vernon Hospital, Norwood at that time.
I have asked fangio to reply on this post and not by PM so we can all see their reply :)

There is a Rose Cresswell on Nursing Registers on Ancestry 1943 & 1946
She qualified 1942 and her permanent address is 37 Waterloo Road, Wellfield Earsdon, Shiremoor, Northumberland.
1939 Register has no Cresswells at that address
-
I have found her in 1939 with that occupation and the date of birth given but as I mentioned earlier there is no update to her Maiden surname.
Sorry I hit the send key ::). I have not managed to locate a death for her but have found no evidence she married.
I cannot see a birth registration Poole RD for R V B either

There is no probate record for the Ronald who died in 1964
Deaths Jun 1964
BENNETT RONALD V 44 CHRISTCHURCH 6B 238
Because the death is pre 1969 no full date of birth shown.
Added: Fangio can either obtain the death certificate to see who registered the death, or see if there is any death report in the local paper.
