There is a likely death for Sarah's mother Annie in 1930:

Annie Code and Rosa (how it is indexed) in 1930 in Dennistoun, age 61yrs - ref 644/4 799

Thanks for the info Monica.
I'm interested to see the reference to (Poor) William Brown on the divorce record. Can you tell me where I can pay to view the record please?
Mum thinks Jean is deceased and from what you say, looks like she needs to go to the records office though we feel the 1922 birth entry fits.

These divorce records mentioned on the NRS site are showing as closed and not open to public inspection unfortunately.

Quik Q - any idea why Willuan referred to as (poor) William in divorce listing you quoted?

Was he getting relief under the Poor Laws which would cause the record to be noted?
This post is a natural hand made product. The slight variations in spelling and grammar enhance its individual character and beauty and in no way are to be considered flaws. Unfortunately my preferred method of writing (Parker Quink on Basildon Bond) cannot be used.

Yes, just so. It may not have been under the Poor Law but he was getting some sort of subsidy to cover his legal costs.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Monica quoted the date upthread - 1934.
