Vera Frances, with grandparents in 1921, not 1939, my mistake.   Not sure who are the Walkers in 1939 though.

Vera’s maiden name Wykes.  Born in 1905.

If helps

England / Missing two marriages
« on: Sunday 16 March 25 21:29 GMT (UK)  »
Im trying to find the marriage records:

John William Heal to Vera Frances

Elsie Dorothy Heal to George Carter

John and Elsie were married in 1918 until 1933. Elsie’s maiden name Rowe. She was disappeared from their young children’s lives in 1933, no one know what happened to her. Until i found Elsie’s death in 1980 in Worthing. As Elsie Carter. Elsie noted on 1939 census as Elsie Carter.

John and Vera lived seperately on 1939 census, John worked in prison whilst Vera lived with her grandparents. Vera remarried after John’s death in 1950

I wonder as i cant find the maariage records, unless i overlooked, i wonder that John and Elsie have never been divorced. Supposed john and police thinks shes dead so John remarried to Vera.

What i never know!  Please do your magic thank you

Bit odd, i cannot find Lilian May Hosegood’s death record anywhere .....she was born in 1899. She lived in Bournemouth in 1964. Her late husband John May Hosegood died in Devon. Did i miss a death record? I tried variants of name and surname. I tried ancestry and freebmd.

Please can you do your magic?

Hello,

Over the years i have been looking for Annie’s death, wondering why she was not found. My theory that when John and Ann’s house on Quarry Road, was cleared out by their sons Alfred and Arthur after Ann’s death, (Annie Luker’s swimming career highlighted when John and Ann were alive,)supposedly Annie left her things in their house before she moved to London, and married , supposedly, Arthur and Alfred found her things and stayed with Arthur. Until Arthur passed away, his daughter Joan looked after Annie’s things. When Joan passed away, Annie’s stuff have passed to Joan’s family, so no one know when Annie passed  away. I saw the medal myself.

Still a mystery, i cant find her on 1921 census either.

Crikey! Thank goodness my grandparents death announcement are not online as my dad think a local theft would check local newspaper and find the deceased in phone directory online and find address!  I wonder if funeral people would ask you if thats ok to publish funeral details online. I would tell friends by calling or email them instead of online announcements. 

Thank you for more explanation
