Marriage for Hale/Dodd

[taidgazacaz]

Have you noticed that two Sarah E Dodd's were born in the area in 1887? Sarah E registered Hawarden and Sarah Elizabeth registered Flint.

Clearly one of these married Peter Davison in 1912, and the GRO registers suggest that they had three children: George W 1918, Joyce 1921 and Glenys 1925.  Each of the children is registered Hawarden and mother's maiden name is shown as Dodd. My guess is that the Sarah that married Peter Davison is not your Sarah.

Hi Tecwyn

No I didn't notice that.

That might just make sense as I can't see Sarah not being married.

I have checked the  GRO indexes from 1906 upto 1926 but cannot find a marriage.
It all seems a bit strange??

I have found WW1 service records for Harry from 1914, he enlisted in Shotton which is where he was living. He was aged 31 and born in West Bromwich, also have his fathers address from his service record


Thanks

Hello Meriel, Have you seen Sarah Elizabeth Hales burial record Jan 1 1927 age 39?
It gives her address as Brookside Garden City.
It might be worth a look at the Electoral Rolls

Hi Paul

Thank you for the info.  That is the Sarah I am looking for.

Would anyone on here have access to the Electoral rolls for 1927 for Flintshire or would I have to go to the records office


Thanks

Hi Meriel,
 I had a look through some electoral rolls. All they tell you is Harry and Sarah lived in Brookside from 1918. I couldn't see them in Garden City before then

Can you post the census info you have & the names of their children?

Paul.

Hi Paul

The census info is for james Cooper Dodd and parents, Sarah was not at home on night of 1911 census.

Address Eleanor terrace, Shotton

Head Thomas Dodd aged 47 Born Hawarden Flints
Annie Dodd aged 44 Born in Golftyn Flintshire
Nora / Daughter single aged 18
Edward Peers/ Son single aged 14
James Cooper / son single aged 9
Harry Hab Boarder/ aged 26 born 1885 West Bromwich Iron worker. (Transcription error on census. Original says Hale not Hab)

Not sure where Sarah was at this time.

Does this help at all Paul


Thanks
