who was Mildred?

[Ladyhawk]

Can anyone help me trace a mystery Mildred?

Reginald Thomas Dale was born on 12 Aug  1907 in Staffordshire. he married Annie Bettany in October 1927 in Stoke on Trent.  She died in 1950.

Not that this helps with Mildred

Reginald Thomas Dale age 83
Born 12 Aug 1907
Registration Date:   May 1991
Registration District:   South Cheshire
Inferred County:   Cheshire
Volume:   35 Page:   307

Annie Dale Age:   43
Registration Date:   Oct 1950
Registration District:   Stoke on Trent
Volume:   9b Page:   644

Does he have an address for reginald after 1950 or have any idea when he moved to Cheshire

Have you tried looking for Reginald & Mildred on the Electoral Register?

Well, out of left field I've just found an entry that shows that a Mildred Dodd married a Wesley Dale in 1942 at a Methodist Church in Newcastle under Lyme in 1942 so I'm wondering if my elderly cousin has got it mixed up and they weren't brother and sister but were husband and wife.

Reginald's first wife Annie Bettany died in 1950 so I assume they got together sometime after that

in terms of an address after 1939 when he lived in Dale St Stoke on Trent the only other info I have is he was cremated on the 3rd June 1999 at a cemetery in Cheshire England.  He died in a village called Arclid in Cheshire but I don't know how long he had lived there

apologies  I mean 1991 not 1999. Its obviously getting to me!

Have you found  Wesley on 1939?, that might be the biggest clue to who was living with him, you say you found him on 1939

I wonder if this is her birth entry?

Mildred Dodd
Registration Sep 1905
Registration District:   Wolstanton Volume:   6b Page:   118

and is she the daughter of Arthur & Sarah Ellen Dodd?

I think she may be the Mildred that died 1968 death already mentioned - her probate doesn’t give any other names
