1939 Register
« on: Wednesday 11 September 19 19:02 BST (UK) »
Hya Peeps, needing help again!
The 1939 register has my oldies living under a different surname, which has been crossed out  and the correct family name written in , one entry has "1947 DNA M" along side it, I suppose this means DNA Match, does this mean that someone else is (or has been) researching this family?  If not, who made the alterations
Thanks for reading,
pete

Nobody would have written DNA Match on the 1939 Register. The code must have a different meaning.

It is most likely a district code, the date being when an event took place, affecting one of your 'oldies'.

DNA was the district code for Bagshot in Surrey. https://www.findmypast.co.uk/articles/1939-register-enumeration-districts

Thanks for the information, on looking again (with my specs on) the entry is ONA M, which is Stoke on Trent, the area I need.
I'm attaching a picture of the entry, I hope, any further info welcome.

I suggest that it indicates that there was a marriage in Stoke on Trent in 1946.
Have you checked this on freeBMD?

More info, Norah was married to Webb 1946, so that will be what the alteration means.
There's so much more info available since I last started researching that I'm having to learn all over again.
Thanks for reading and for replies

PS. Emeltom, and JenB sorry, I was typing this when you replied, seems like the M is sorted, Thank you, but who would have altered the others?

I took another look at the 1939 Register for my Mother. I had not found her previously. Finally found her redacted although her younger brother is there but born seven years later. A big undertaking and mistakes happen.
