Looking for birth

[carol8353]

Looks like mum did indeeed remarry.She's down with both her maiden and married surnames.


Marriages Dec 1937   

Cardoza    Winifred M    Cooper    Hackney    1b   874    
Cooper    Alfred S    Foxton    Hackney    1b   874    
Cooper    Alfred S    Cardoza    Hackney    1b   874    
Foxton    Winifred M    Cooper    Hackney    1b   874   

And a further 1941 birth that may belong to the above couple,but not in London,up here in Northamptonshire!!!

Perhaps they were evacuated out of London during the war.

Thanks very much for your help Carol.

The only other thing I've been told about her is she may have been evacuated to Wales before going back to London. I think it's looking like she may have been adopted as I can't work out where else the name Oldham came from.

  Either that or she took her real dad's name?

No,she took her grandma's surname.

For some reason I hadn't thought of that! Would there be any way of finding details about children who were evacuated? Or maybe they're confidential.

They're too recent I suspect.Try a search on here and see what comes up. I'm sure the subject has been covered before. Maybe if you get her birth cert you can confirm it's the right girl (DOB) and see who it gives as her dad- perhaps that's the reason they split up?

Mum is in Bethnal Green in 1929 and 30,but then doesn't appear as Foxton after that.

Hi

May have solved the surname problem

Winifred's  (Wendy) mother was Winifred M Cardoza born in 1903 to parents William Cordoza and Esther Stokes.

William Cardoza died young in 1923 and her mother Esther  remarried in 1928 to a Thomas Oldham.

Clever girl Claire 

Never thought to look into her Cardoza side !

Isn't it great how we all approach a problem from a different angle and together come up with answers ?

[carol8353]

Esther as Cardoza is at 1 Henrietta Street Bethnal Green in 1920,26 and 28.
And as Esther Oldham with Thomas and an Alfred Cardoza from 1930 onwards to at least 1936.

EUREKA !!!

IN 1952 and 1950 Winifred Margaret Doris Oldham is with grandma Esther Oldham and Henry S Cardoza at 67 Palace Gates Roa,d Wood Green,London N22

She may have been there before that too.
