Laura Lightowler - Hull
« on: Sunday 13 October 13 23:12 BST (UK) »
Hi,
Looking to find any siblings to a Laura Lightowler born about 1870-75 in Hull Yorkshire married Frank Lord abt 1896-98. He went down with his vessel named 'Mary" in January 1913 of the coast of France.
Laura had three children Guy born abt 1903 Winifred born March 22nd 1906 David born abt March 1913 all dead now. I believe Laura's Uncle Lightowler took them in. He owned a printing shop in Hull around 1900-1920. Any help would be great.
Bewley :)

Hi Bewley and welcome

Have you found Laura in 1881 on Family Search?
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/X3F5-CX6

She has several siblings for you to chase up  :)

1891 has Beatrice 5 yrs and Arthur 2 yrs also.

Regards
Heywood

Hello Bewley and welcome to RootsChat

This looks like Laura's marriage reg - although she has been transcribed as "Leonora"
Jun qtr 1898
Hull
on same page
Frank Lord
Leonora Lightowler
9d 445

there are possible birth reg's for her in 1874 and 1875

son Guy's birth reg was Jun qtr 1902 Hull 9d 325

It would be an idea to look on FreeBMD for birth reg's -that way you will get a more accurate y.o.b.
