Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Addition to surname in 1939
« on: Monday 21 April 25 13:18 BST (UK)  »
That would make lots of sense - Donaldson was her husband's middle name but they do not use it elsewhere, and I had overlooked that.  Will try not to go cross-eyed next time.

Good.

Thanks.

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Addition to surname in 1939
« on: Monday 21 April 25 13:04 BST (UK)  »
Sophia Gertrude Jamieson, born 1864, widowed, was living at 105 Earls Court Road in 1921, 1939 and at probate.

Can anyone tell me what is the word in front of her surname in 1939 as attached, and with links?

Thank-you

Hi, Thomas,  Welcome to rootschat.

I think you need to be a little more specific with what help you need.  A few dates such as birth marriage or death might also be useful.

What have you already found and where are you stuck?

If they are a totally American family you will be better off using an American site.

Hi, Grimpil,  Welcome to rootschat.

This is a very old posting but might give you some ideas as to where else to look:
https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=195286.0

Where did you see the reference to Peacock Yard - just to give a starting point as to year?

Have you tried the nls site? - but not many houses named for this year

Family History Beginners Board / Re: MyHeritage upload of 3 family dna files

Hi, Sealeaffish,

I know nothing about MyHeritage, and nor, apparently, does anyone else on here.
Instead of spending hours searching online the most obvious answer is to ask them your question.  Their site, they should have a Help section, surely?

Hi, Beth,

You have not said whether you belong to Ancestry or Find My Past or any other paid Site.

I will put a link to Ancestry 1939 register but if you could say a little more it would help us.  It is up to you to do the work and buy, where necessary, the certificates for confirmation.

I had already checked freebmd for any mention anywhere of anyone as : liv*p*n*.  But I still thought I might somehow have missed one.

Yes, it is always interesting to be reminded that women did travel for a variety of different reasons.
