I am still trying to find out what happened to Ida after 1935. It looks as if her marriage did not last and her daughter, born in 1935 was given up for adoption at a few weeks old. The person who signed the adoption cert. was David Martin Kelly. I would just like to know if Ida remarried and when and where she died. Does anyone have any info please?
Thanks, Joyce

Ida May Dunn
« Reply #10 on: Wednesday 01 February 12 22:54 GMT (UK) »
I wonder if anyone could look up an electoral register for me as I live in England. I would like to know who was registered in the address, Sun Rose, Millisle, Newtonards in 1935. We think. Ida's husband Andrew C Dunn should be there and we would like to know if Ida was there too.
Does anyone know if we could find the address of Ida's mother who gave birth to my friend in July 1935 at Ards Hospital, if she was not at Millisle, from hospital records? I suspect not but asked the question anyway.
Thanks, Joyce

Look up and Ida May Gamble/Dunn
« Reply #11 on: Friday 03 February 12 10:15 GMT (UK) »
Is anyone able to look up an electoral register for me, please, as I live in NE England? I would like to know the inhabitants of Sun Rose, Millisle, Newtonards in 1935.
I am trying to find any info on Ida May Dunn, nee Gamble, b. 1904 Belfast, on behalf of her daughter who was adopted out in 1935 at a few weeks old. Ida married Andrew C Dunn in 1929 but we suspect marriage did not last. We would love to know what happened to Ida in her latter years, where she lived and died, did she remarry? The name David Martin Kelly was on my friend's  adoption cert. Any info gratefully appreciated. My friend was born in 1935 at Ards hospital.
Thanks, Joyce

Hello, This is a retry as it is a long time since my first attempt and I am hoping that new members may be able to help.
I am looking for any info on Ida May Dunn, b. Belfast 1904 and who married Andrew Cecil Dunn in 1929. Marriage possibly did not last. Ida had daughter in 1935 and gave her up for adoption. Daughter was brought to England, is now 77 and in ill health  and would love to know any details as to what happened to her mother. GRONI have no details on remarriage or death. Brick wall is getting higher. Can anyone help, please?
Regards,
Joyce

Thanks, gaffy. I've merged this latest topic with the existing thread and crossed out the link.

Joyce- as I've explained several times already, there's no reason to start another topic looking for Ida- duplicate threads cause needless confusion and extra work for those trying to help. Search engines, such as Google, will pick up Rootschat posts, as well as other forums you've posted on.

Lots of help and suggestions to follow up given here (and on your other bbc forum threads)-

Hello Joyce

It is obvious from all your various posts here and elsewhere, how anxious you are to help your friend with her quest and you are to be applauded for such devotion to the task. Not sure if anyone else has done so or not for you already, but in case they haven't, I have today sent contact emails to the two people on Genes, George and Noreen, who, as you already know, both seem to have the same Ida in their research. Whilst they may not reply,  it is always worth a try.

 :)

ps I have also used Genes to contact a Warren who may have the 1931 Carrickfergus birth (mentioned in some of your posts elsewhere) in his research too.

Thank you for your replies. It is after 1935 I am hoping to find her but have drawn a complete blank so far, even with GRONI. Just thought that a new member might have their memory jogged. Have tried to contact Genes members before but o no avail.
Thanks, Joyce
