The suggestion that  Nicholas was born 1919,
I have found a  death
birth shown as 05/09/1919
death Jan 1987 Sheffield

Louisa Maud

[rosie99]

The certificate hasn't arrived yet but I understand that Saturday mail deliveries have been halted except for parcels. So hopefully it will be Monday.

Sorry for being a bit thick but Rosie99 what do you mean about her using another name?

Saturday mail deliveries are back to normal.  If you are relying on a date from the GRO website they are not accurate because of the current situation.

I am looking at the 1939 register entry for the family that would link with the birth registration below, I presume that is the correct one.  That 1939 register entry has her as Owen, then amended to her married name as mentioned by John (available on free index)  If you look at the original image there is another surname listed with an adjustment reference which I mentioned in an earlier post.

Probable Birth:
Vera Owen MMN Banks (see Towdlass' surname list under her post)
Sept Q 1918
Ecclesall B  9c 807

Oh right thanks for that. I shall have a look. Didn't know about the date of death for Nicholas though.

What was her husbands profession?

Louisa Maud - I don't know that - yet. It may say something on the marriage certificate

Have you looked at the 1939 Register using his date of birth Louisa Maud posted for Nicholas Harrison to check his occupation

I can't find any entry for either of them on the 1939 register. I've tried various combinations. I did use the dob given to us by Louisa Maud but there doesn't seem to be an entry. I did wonder if they weren't in Sheffield and so I have tried, Rother Valley, Clitheroe, Bakewell, Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Lancashire and London. I have put in other household members as Vera Owen, Cook, Frederick Harrison and left it blank. I can't think of anything else to try.   

[rosie99]

She did not get married until after the register was taken so Frederick will not be with her.  Have you located her parents in 1939

ADDED
I think you may be putting in too much information, Try Vera - surname Harrison (Owen) and nothing else on F M P - I presume you are searching on the 1939 search page

If you are using Findmypast, her name has been transcribed by them with her married name followed by her maiden name.
Try searching Vera Harrison, b. 1918, Sheffield

For Nicholas, try a simple search of Nicholas Harrison, b. 1919, Sheffield.
