Northamptonshire / Re: BILLINGTON-WALKER 1915 marriage date Wellingborough

Well that would be interesting, as she was born 4 March 1916.

But no it's just to tie up loose ends really.

He died in 1954 - in Northampton as far as I know.

Thanks.  Were you looking at newspapers.com?  I looked at BNA via FindmyP but couldn't find any announcement.  I'd hoped a better searcher than me could find something, or via a different newspaper site.

Northamptonshire / BILLINGTON-WALKER 1915 marriage date Wellingborough
« on: Sunday 20 July 25 12:04 BST (UK)  »
Hope someone can help please?

I have Sarah Ellen Billington (born Feb 1891 in Worcester, but family soon after living in Wellingborough) marrying Frederick William Walker (born Oct 1888 in Northampton but may have been working/living in Wellingborough) in 1915.  The marriage is registered in Q3 so it could have been June-Sep.  Their first child was born early March 1916 but that might not pinpoint the actual marriage date of course.

I have only been able to find the GRO record so far.  I thought I'd ask on here before ordering the certificate.

Thanks.

Death notice published Dec 15 just states Ivy Plunkett, age (105), date of death Dec 14 1996, Bakersfield and Hopsan-Anspach family mortuary (assume that is a funeral director/home).

Just revisiting this puzzler. 

No Ivy or Isabel Brown or Caldwell in the 1908 annual calendar of Frances Shimer, nor in earlier editions.

Regarding Sandra's advice to obtain the death notice from Kern County Genealogy Service, I have just enquired about how to pay since they require a cheque.

Thank you!  Will try this, and report back. I know he died in Hamburg.

Does anyone know if Germany has a similar Find a Will online service to the UK's?  If he had a will that might shed some light.

1921 census revealed that George Bertram was at a boarding school in Margate, but the school was bombed in the war so no records likely.  George Bertam searches are in a different thread https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=835085.0

1921 census did not come up with Bertha (born abt 1884 Germany), Oskar or Brunhilde Bertram so that was disappointing. Perhaps Bertha Kra(c)he/Bertram remarried or the whole family had left the country.  Not that I can find a marriage other than a Bertha S Bertram marrying a Jean L Got or Gob in Bootle in 1920.  But I can't find that couple in the 1921 census either.  Perhaps not looking hard enough?
