She had three sisters Constance,Celestial and Margery. I have them in 1911 a d then they seem to disappear I to thin air. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Probably a red-herring, but FindMyPast has a 1939 entry for Gwendoline M A I Alexander?
Born 1903; living at St Ursula's Hostel, Brooke Street, Faringdon, Islington & City of London.
The 3rd initial could be a mistranscribed L?

Constance has married by 1921 census

She died in 1948

I think Annie Elizabeth who was baptised in 1894 died very soon afterwards, as there's a death registration in Basford in the same quarter as the birth.

Clarice E Walker
Alfred E Severs
Q2 1912
York Vol 9d p133
(remembering the family are in York in 1911)
They can be found on 1921 - Clarice born Nottinghamshire c1893
she's widowed in 1943, remarries in 1945 to John Williams and dies in 1958 - staying in Yorkshire
-
There's a possible set of marriages for Marjorie - first to George Cartledge in 1929 and then to Richard Wood in 1938 (following a divorce)
Her age is out in 1939 but she's in Beeston
-
Many thanks for all the information
-
Strange coincedence..

This Herbert died in 1965 too.
-
No coincidence - same person, with the full name as per the baptism I posted for Hebert & Mary's son
-
Did Mary Ann marry again?
-
Did Mary Ann marry again?
I don't think so. She's a widow on the 1939 register, living with her son at the same address as when her husband died, and there's not changes on the register to suggest she married after that date
Possible death? Basford is the district for most of the family's registrations
