It will probably help in finding entries later. This looks like Cornelius in 1871 in Mile End Old Town:

Class: RG10; Piece: 561; Folio: 146; Page: 17

Possible birth entry for him:

WHEAL Cornell - Ongar 12 156

From IGI, confirming parents:

Cornel Wheal  Christening: 02 JAN 1848 Stondon-Massey, Essex
Parents: James Wheal and Mary Wheal

Hi folks
Thanks to all of you for the info on Charles Woolnough. It seems he might be the milk carrier. I'm also looking for a lady called gwendoline Woolnough circa 1920. I have looked at the births for that year and am struggling to find her. I have found her getting married to someone called Russell in 1960. Can anyone enlighten me.
Thanks

Hi

As she married aged around 40 in 1960 could it be this wasn't her first marriage so Woolnough wasn't her maiden name? The marriage certificate itself will of course give further information. She might of course have been born a Woolnough but not in England or Wales. She might be adjusting her age down on her marriage.

Regards

Valda

This looks to be the birth entry for Charles and Eliza's daughter:

Births 4th Qrt 1924   
WOOLNOUGH (name as you have) WHEAL in Hackney    1b   541

The Russell/Woolnough marriage shows the same name including middle initials so looks likely

Hi

or slightly more unusual then, if you have her age correct on marriage, adjusting her age up!

Regards

Thanks for the info. I think she might have told one or two fibbies. Now I have something to work on.

Possible death entry for her in Jan 1994 in Enfield, Middlesex (with a birth date of 6 Dec. 1924).

Hope you find what you need chrissue

With the info I had about her marriage I think I found that she died in 2002 in Cornwall. Need to find the obituary in cornwall. How do I find these?
