US Lookup Requests / Re: Eveline Marjory Challis born 13 Oct 1901 Stepney, London
« on: Yesterday at 10:16 »
Thank you All very much, excellent research from which I've found that Aubret was actually named Cyris Aubrey Gerald Augustine Cowen born 21 or 25 Apr 1900 Middlesbrough, they married Q2 1971 in Chelsea. So it was a late marriage although on the GRO record it records her as Evelin M C Cowen.

US Lookup Requests / Eveline Marjory Challis born 13 Oct 1901 Stepney, London

The above was the only daughter of Walter Page Challis 1866-1950 and Margaret Sarah Wilson 1872-1950. At 1939 she was living at Paddington, London, 313-319, 1-3 Harrow Road, Woodfield Road.
After the deaths of her parents she appears to have emigrated to the USA but did a lot of travelling between the USA and England and at 28 Sep 1961 she was living at 1011 7th St, North, St Petersburg, Florida when she arrived from England. After that she disappears from sight. A family tree on Anc has her dying in 1975 at Sutton, Surrey, but that lady was married.

Somerset Lookup Requests / Henry or Frederick Cann born 5 May 1884 Trull, Somerset

The above appears to have been born as above as Henry but at his marriage he was recorded as Frederick when he married Hilda Kate Rudd (1895-1971) Q3 1918 in Wandsworth, London. In 1921 they were living at 22 Cloudesley Square, Islington, London. They had 7 children who I know of. In 1939 he was an army pensioner living at Taunton but Kate was living at 2, Highfield View, Barlby, Derwent, Yorkshire with 1 of the children, Charles Herbert b1926.
I can't find a death record for either Henry or Frederick?

Midlothian / Elizabeth Isabella Scott Burn born 20 Jul 1896 Edinbugh

Elizabeth was the 2nd daughter of William Burn 1870-1931 and Agnes White Vallance 1874-1953, I found her and her sister Jane Marion Scott Burn born 1900, on the 1921 Census living at Forrest Hill, Edinburgh George Square as out of work rubber shoe makers. After that I can't find Elizabeth but Jane seems to have died in 1964 Edinburgh St Andrew?
Her brother William born 23 Sep 1898 married Helen MacKay Murray 8 Sep 1922 in Edinburgh, she died 9 Jun 1954 in Edinburgh Haymarket but I can't find his death?
The other sister Sarah born 1894 married John MacLean 15 Feb 1916 in Edinburgh, she died 4 May 1977 in Inverness as did John 19 Dec 1969.
I've searched the Scottish People website for these but to no avail.
