Marriage Roach and Moya 1940-4 timescale

[Skoyen89]

Hi

I am researching the WWII dead on our local War Memorials in Berkshire (now Oxfordshire).  One is Frederick John Roach who died as a POW in Germany having been taken prisoner at Arnhem in Sept 1944.

He had married Mary C Moya of Ballaghaclereen, Co Roscommon sometime in the period from 1940 to 1944.  They may have had a daughter.  In 1950 she was living at Church Street, Ballaghaderreem.

Can anyone help with details of the marriage and any more details of Mary and the family?

Many thanks
Tony Honeyman

Rootschat has a strict no living persons policy to protect peoples privacy.  If the daughter was only born in the 1940's she could still be alive so you need to remove her name from your post

Her maiden name wasn't Moya - it was Feeney

See freebmd - marriage was Dec qtr 1939 Surrey but to get further details you will need to buy a copy of the cert.  Can't see any births though

Mayer (note spelling) is on the 1939 register.  We are not allowed to post details of the entry but she is in Surrey

The entry on the CWGC site shows Frederick died 24.1.1945

Many thanks for the help.  The real surname was a major breakthrough - I had tried FreeBMD but hadn't found them. 

I have taken the daughter's name off my original post.  Her name and that of her mother (Moya was her first name not her family name) appears on the CWGC gravestone. 

Again Thanks
Tony

I think the daughter may have been born in Ireland - nothing found in England

Could this be a possibility

Just to say that the place will be Ballaghaderreen, Roscommon.
