Looking for Doris Day
« on: Sunday 03 November 19 13:49 GMT (UK) »
Doris Lucy Judden Day was born on 5 May 1899 in Little Hallingbury. Her parents were Julia nee Prior and George Day. I have her in 1901 and 1911 with her parents but nothing after that. there are 17 Dorises with the same birth date in 1939 but no Doris L J or even Doris L. I can't find an obvious match on Marriage or Death indexes either.
Can anyone please find Doris?

The 1945 marriage appears to be the right one
