NSW birth - Pamela TATE

[jorose]

I don't see any trace of (Richard) Henry Tate, a captain in the Royal Welch Fusiliers.
Of course he could be "Richard Henry" but not surnamed Tate.

Did she give consistent information about her father on the first and second marriages?
Who were the witnesses to the 1936 marriage? (her mother may be on as a witness, perhaps under another surname if she'd remarried).

So, this would be her first marriage in 1936?

TATE Dot m. SMITH Lewis E  Dec 1936 Marylebone 1a/1499

.....Although the father was always known as Henry Tate on the marriage certificate he is listed as Richard Henry Tate. He was deceased by the time of her marriage (1936) and his profession given as Captain Royal Welch Fusiliers.....

What was her mother's name on the marriage certificate please?

What was the given name of her second husband?

Only death I can see from 1913 -1936 in NSW

Merlin if you have the births to 1918 in NSW could you check for her birth as Dorothy please?

Apart from what Mariona found earlier there is this one:

TATE Doris b.1913 TENTERFIELD #19564
Parents: Fred G & Sarah R

About all I can do now is search for every Dorothy born 1912-1918 without a surname 

[paulineeldridge]

Yes, I have that one.

What I have also done this morning is sent for the marriage certificate of her Mother Dorothy. Her Mother was also married twice and I have now found the registration details for the second marriage. Once I get that certificate from the GRO that will hopefully give details of her Father, then I will know the maiden name!! Then hopefully I can find her first marriage to Richard Henry Tate and get hold of that certificate to get his Father's details. A longer way around but hopefully it will work. Thanks for your help!

Thanks Merlin.  Perhaps Dot wasn't her registered name anyway.

Did her mother marry twice in the UK?

[~MERLIN~]

Can you give us all the details that you do have or know for her mother please?

[cando]

I was about to make the same request. 

Could you also give the year that Dot [Pamela] married a BELL.
