You will find the birth reg for KW from that 1950 marriage I mentioned above on freebmd in 1921

You mean if I buy the marraige cert?

No - I mean you will find both the marriage and her birth reg by using freebmd

Oh right, yes I have found a couple of records that could be KWs birth.

I am intrigued. Wonder if this is the infamous K. I know she is no longer with us. Grandma said she passed away about 20 years ago.

I cannot find one of the daughters Grandma mentioned, no record of the name of the daughter with the maiden name of Washington for mother. But have found the other one.

Is it possible she was born before the 1950 marriage and her birth is in her mothers maiden name?

Did K remarry as I can't confirm a death for her under Bentley

My Grandad remarried to my grandma they got together 1960 ish (my mum was born in 1966) and they married in 1976 I believe, so I would imagine K went back to her maiden name.

They may have been I suppose, but my grandma is adamant they will both be BENTLEYS! Hmmm

Not necessarily - if she had children surname Bentley - she may have retained her married name.  She also may have re-married after the divorce in which case her death will be under her new married name

Until a death can be confirmed - we have to be careful what details are shown here

I agree with Carole, this was a far less common practice in the 1960s-70s.

OK thank you very much.

Is it possible he could have been married twice before?

Besides the 1950 marriage there is also one for a George L. Bentley in 1943, also in Stockport, and this appears to have resulted in one daughter too born in 1944!!
