Hi,

I found this burial for Raymond but it doesn't show a date for Doris so she may have moved away or it's just possible that she is still alive.

She was Beryl Doreen Whitmore nee Jordan b 1922
He was Raymond Harold Whitmore b 1922

Marriage was 1942 so there may be living children

Strange there is no year for Beryl's death but the epitaph clearly means she is deceased

There were 2 Whitmore/Jordan marriages in Leicestershire - the other one being 1946. 

Births start from 1947 so difficult to determine which child belongs to which couple but they couldn't be named here anyway as they may still be living

See reply 3 above.  What year did they emigrate?   Look at the 2 births in 1951.  The proximity of the registrations means they had different parents.  The female birth married in 1970 in Leics.  The male is on the English electoral register in Leics in 2010

Hi sorry I don't know when both emigrated  to Canada all I know is that they used to have a dancing school in Leicester so looks like I'll have to get some Birth certificates to find out which ones are which thank you for your help
