My grandparents divorced and remarried soon after in Manchester 1930. Is it yet possible to find their divorced papers.

I have a copy of Annie's birth cert Born Annie on the 29th June 1904 to Rose Ann Clancey.
The 1939 register has my fathers birth date as August 1923, he was born March 1923.
I think I would be a lot further on with this family history if people would give the correct dates and not guess.

Do you know what papers were doing the rounds in 1950 Bolton.
Thanks
John.

Yes Daisy Bank Road was on the corner of Plymouth Grove. My school was on Daisy Bank Road. I lived just around the corner on Richmond Grove. When I went to school I would walk down Plymouth Grove and turn right into Daisy Bank Road. 263 Plymouth Grove was on the opposite corner across the road.

The father of Francis was also called Francis. He died 1st April 1950. He lived in and was buried in Bolton.
Heywood.
Yes this is my grandfather. As you say he was born 1903. So perhaps the Francis who lived on Plymouth Grove was unrelated and him being minutes away from where I lived with my parents was just a coincidence.
The Francis Dunn who lived at 263 Plymouth Grove is the one in Southern cemetery. The writing on his stone:
In memory of
Francis Dunn
Died 19th Sep 1950
Aged 52 Years.
So if the Francis is in Southern is unrelated then where is my grandfather (buried) and his wife Annie. Ive been against this brick wall for the past two years.
Thanks

I have the death cert cert for Francis Dunn, the one in Southern cemetery. It does say that he was 50 years old when he died in 1952. My grandfather Francis Dunn was born Sept 1903, so they birth dates don't match.
The problem I have with the Francis Dunn in Southern cemetery is that prior to his death he lived just around the corner from my father, his son? When I say around the corner I am talking three minutes. His ex wife? my grandmother was no more than five minutes away. No mention of this Francis Dunn who lived around the corner was ever made by my family. The other problem I have with Francis in Southern is that his wife's name is Hannah, not Annie (similar sounding names) There is another Francis Dunn who was born Manchester 1902, he does not appear to be related. 
So my problem is which Francis Dunn is in Southern. Dates close together can never be relied on.

Annie Dunn was born Annie Shatliff  on the 29th June 1904. If I can find some info on Annie it may shed some light on who is actually in Southern, my grandfather or the other Francis Dunn.

Thanks

Annie was born Annie Clancey 1904 in Manchester. No father on the birth cert.
Her mother Rose Ann Clancey married Thomas Shatliffe soon after and Annie took his surname.
In 1921 she married Albert Winters who sadly died soon after. In 1930 she married my grandfather Francis Dunn.
My grandfather was born 1903, there is a Francis Dunn in Southern cemetery he is on his own. His marker says he was born 1902. Not sure but he could be my grandfather.
I have found them both in the 1939 register residing on Cheetham Hill Road Manchester.
Does anyone know what happened to Annie after 1939.
Thanks
John

At the moment cant find any children for Annie in both her marrages.

Annie is the daughter of Rose Ann Clancey no father on the birth cert. Rose Ann married Thomas Shatliff 1907.

Francis Dunn's first wife was my grandmother Nellie Dunn. They divorced?
He then married Annie Shatliff 1930. Annie's first husband Albert Winters died young, pneumonia.
