I've gone from 1931 to 1943 and cannot find a Kathleen Eary other than the one i have found....

A little bizarre... so the options are either i have missed it, she never married or the Matthews marriage wasn't her first?

Does your father know if they were married for some time before having him?

yes he was he was a driver in the royal army called desert rats if that makes any sence

WayneTracey

WayneTracey Report 31 May 2008 02:28

Actually, yes i have already mentioned that one a little while ago....

"There's a James W J Eary & Margaret K Eary marrying in Romford in 1936, which might indicate older children than Kathleen..."


Hmmm , thanks again Richard

Colette

Colette Report 31 May 2008 02:28

Colette Report 31 May 2008 02:33

WayneTracey

WayneTracey Report 31 May 2008 02:34

i'm a little bit drunk now ( well maybe drop the little bit) so i can be forgiven for not spotting the slip with the names...

hehehe

Colette Report 31 May 2008 02:37

blame me that was my fault as you did say that name earlyer and i didnt even think about it .. it never entered my head that she swapped her name a round

Colette

Colette Report 31 May 2008 02:41

strange that my other grandad father was called leonard o'sullivan but i know him as leonard sullivan and i cant seems to find him any where thanks to him dropping the o off his name strange how names get changed in the old days

Colette

Colette Report 31 May 2008 02:42

think it must have been a grand parent thing in them days to change your name around
