Looking for....
« on: Thursday 31 August 17 11:09 BST (UK) »
Hi All

I have been looking for an ancestor for some time who just seemed to vanish post the 1911 census.
Ethel May Sugars born 1894 Lancashire, daughter of Henry Thomas Sugars & Ann Elizabeth (Lizzie) Sugars nee Reygate.
I have managed to get a copy of the burial plot in Nelson, Lancs where her mother and father are buried and to my surprise an Ethel May Green is also buried there who died in 1920 aged 26 so clearly she got married, this is where the trail goes cold i can find no marriage whatsoever and if they had any children, all i can find is a Lizzie Green born and died 1920 in the same area, Lizzie was her mothers name.
I obtained the a marriage certificate of her sister Edith Catherine from 1927 again in Nelson, Lancs and it is witnessed by Willie & Mary A Green, the first time i have seen any Greens in the family.
Any help would be appreciated.

And as you found
Births Mar 1920 
Green    Lizzie    MMN Sager    Burnley    8e   495

Deaths Jun 1920 
GREEN    Lizzie    0    Burnley    8e   292

But there is also
Births Mar 1920 
Green    Ellen    Sagar    Burnley    8e   495

so either registered under an alternative name or a twin as page number the same.

"Sagar" is not an uncommon name in that area of Lancs. Has Lancs Parish clerks online got any who may be relevant? Worth a hunt.
Threlfall (Southport), Isherwood (lancs & Canada), Newbould + Topliss(Derby), Keating & Cummins (Ireland + lancs), Fisher, Strong& Casson (all Cumberland) & Downie & Bowie, Linlithgow area Scotland . Also interested in Leigh& Burrows,(Lancashire) Griffiths (Shropshire & lancs), Leaver (Lancs/Yorks) & Anderson(Cumberland and very elusive)

Indeed a very common name, 'Sugars' is far less common but i have seen 'Sugar' written as 'Sagar' on certificates before.
