Searching Kumm-Woolfe
« on: Friday 05 July 19 00:25 BST (UK) »
I am looking for information on Ivy (Woolfe) Kumm, born 1907 died 1983 Worthing.

I may have information of interest to her decedents.

You can't mention living people on Rootschat. And we aren't allowed to look up living people either.
I am Australian, from all the lands I come (my ancestors, at least!)

Pine/Pyne, Dowdeswell, Kempster, Sando/Sandoe/Sandow, Nancarrow, Hounslow, Youatt, Richardson, Jarmyn, Oxlade, Coad, Kelsey, Crampton, Lindner, Pittaway, and too many others to name.
Devon, Dorset, Gloucs, Cornwall, Warwickshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire, Wilts, Germany, Sweden, and of course London, to name a few.

The only Alan Kumm birth reg is 1909 in Marylebone London.  An Alan Edward Kumm b 1909 died 1988 in Worthing Sussex

Alan E Kumm married Ivy E Woolfe 1935 Sussex and they appear to have had only one child - female

The person you are asking about  married 1953 - see freebmd. www.freebmd.org.uk   You can use freebmd to search for Kumm births with that mothers maiden name

I apologize, did not wish to break rules or offend. I am just trying through this board and a few other to make contact.

You have now amended your post showing a different person than previously. 

The only Ivy Woolfe birth on freebmd was 1903 Grimsby

You say she was b 1907 died 1983.   That death was Ivy Frances.    Looking again at the 1935 marriage on freebmd I made a typo - she was Ivy D Woolfe not Ivy E.  Death reg shows Ivy Doreen born 3.12.1913 died April 1996. 

From freebmd births  March qtr 1914 Ivy D Woolf Axbridge 5c 722 mothers maiden name Sharpe

There is a Henry Woolf marriage in 1911 Axbridge and also an Albert E Woolf 1912 Axbridge but neither to a Sharpe.  It may be that it was a second marriage for the female in which case she would have remarried using her previous married name.  However - children born to the second marriage will show under her birth (maiden) name
