I am trying to trace for a distant cousin of mine who lives in Australia, what happened to Annie Stead who married her Grandfather Percival Taylor in 1919. Annie was living at 255 Burley Road in Leeds at the time and Annie and Percival were married in the Parish Church in Burley.
There may have been a child of the marriage Ann, who my cousin is also anxious to trace as this would have been her Mother’s half-sister. Percival got married again to May Schofield on his “death bed” in Littleborough, Lancashire in 1952. Nothing is known of what happened to Annie or the possible child after 1919.
If anyone knows what happened to either of them, I would be most grateful, and I’m sure my cousin would be also.

You will need to remove your cousins name from your post as they are still living :)

Have you located Percival or Annie in 1921 census or 1939 register.
-
How do I locate Annie Stead on the 1939 Register ? I don’t know where she lived, whether she had died, or whether she had married again.
-
Percival appears on 1939 register. dob 18.11.1897. Also in the household is a May Taylor (Scholfield)
+ one redacted and one named.

Just trying to narrow down timelines. With what is recorded on 1939 reg Percival was with May as early as mq 1922 as a son is born * Taylor with mmn SCHOFIELD in Rochdale.

This will need checking out.
Looking at where they married (Percival & Annie) in 1919 Leeds
Looking at Taylor/Stead birth's between 1919-21 in Leeds records 2. One is for a female JQ 1920 with forename Kathleen Taylor.
In 1921 UK census Annie & Kathleen appear together in Leeds
1939 register in Leeds has Annie Taylor date of birth 7.1.1893. This ties in with her death in January 1984 with same date of birth. Also with Annie is Kathleen Taylor. Her dob 10.4.1920. She would appear to have married twice, and died as Kathleen Leadley in 2001 Leeds with same dob.
Kathleen first marriage was to a Mr Gill mq 1940
2nd marriage jq 1951 as Kathleen Gill

Thank you all for your suggestions regarding Percival Taylor and Annie Stead. It will take me some time to check everything out, but without your help I would never have been able to do so.
If you know anything else about Annie, or a child, I would love to know. Or if there is anyone else who may have information, please post it.
