Hey all.
At long last I have a lead on my mother's side of the family, well, sort of.
My great aunt (sister of mother's mother) died a while ago but I have managed to get a copy of her marriage certificate to Ron Luckett. Violet's parentage is a little uncertain though I have found a birth entry in the Midlands for Violet Parker, mother's surname "Taylor". Violet had the middle name "Ellen" so perhaps mother was Ellen taylor... unsure. Both my grandmother and Violet shared the surname Parker when they married but Violet was 13 years older than my grandmother. Anyway, i digress.
My grandmother told my mother that her and Violet's father died when she was young however, on the marriage certificate for Violet and Ron (1956), Violet's father is not listed as deceased like Ron's. His name is given as Albert Ebenezer Parker, occupation Lorry Driver. Something isn't ringing true somewhere but unfortunately, I am working with scraps. Violet was born in 1924 and my grandmother was born in 1937.
With the middle name of "Ebenezer" I thought he would be easy to find but has evaded me so far. The only vague hits I have found so far are:
A.E Parker burial 1956 Wiltshire
Albert Ebenezer Parker, Birth, Jan-Feb-Mar 1899, Aston, Warwickshire
Whole family were/are Midlands based around Birmingham/Coventry
Any help appreciated!
