	Danielle Yes i would advise you to sent for the marriage cert.There is also the poss that Patrick came over from Ireland in early 1850's??then he wouldn't show on the 1841-51.Getting the cert may give more clues and would be worth getting. Michelle

Member Since: November 2002 Posts: 40 Send Message	Hi Michelle There were two children, my mother June and her brother Derek (born 1941 (he was later adopted as granny left him with Albert), my mother was born in 1937 in Loughborough, Leicestershire (she was fostered when granny left her with Albert). Dorothy died in 1972, she was born in 1914 in Derbyshire and died in Bridgnorth, Shropshire. she did marry after Albert died in 1955, a William Teager, but it is Albert (middle name William) I'm trying to trace, can't find anything on him at all. Would be really grateful if you could find anything at all. Regards Wendy

	Wendy On your previous thread you mentioned Albert died in 1941 aged 47 birthyear around 1894.See below: Abert William Woods, (my grandfather) he died in 1941 aged 47 so probably born 1894? This part of your new thread has confused me? brother Derek (born 1941 (he was later adopted as granny left him with Albert), If he died in 1941 how could this be? So could you clarify when he died please?This search is proving tricky.I have searched 1932-1938 and now marriage??Unless Dorothy had been married before?On the children's birth certs was any other surnames mentioned for her?

Member Since: March 2007 Posts: 6 Send Message	Hi Michelle Thanks for your help with John and Alice Douthwaite. Can you find any info re John Rook c1826 m to Mary Ellen Johnson c1830 please. I'm looking for any siblings John may have and also any children. I think his parents were John Rook c1784 and Mary c1794. Thanks, Elaine

Member Since: November 2002 Posts: 40 Send Message	Hi Michelle, sorry if I have confused you. Here are a few more bits of info. Grandfather – Albert William Woods born 1894c, place of birth unknown. Died 6/9/1941 at 309 Park Cottages Barston, Hampton in Arden. He was a Policeman/firewatcher according to his death cert. I'm guessing he was born in 1894 as his death certificate states he was 47 at death. Grandmother – Dorothy Knowles (known as Dolly) born 1914, in Old Whittington, Derbyshire, died in 1972 in Bridgnorth, Shropshire. My grandmother Dorothy disappeared, after the birth of Derek, (born 26/1/1941) even Dorothy’s own mother thought she had died as she apparently cashed in her life insurance. Dorothy then went on to marry William Teager, 16 July 1955. she also went on to live with/marry ? Haywood and had another 2 children, she had them all fostered/adopted. (obviously didn’t like children). On Derek’s birth cert it says Dorothy Woods formerly Knowles, father Albert William Woods, occupation of father police constable of Oak Villas, Warwick Road, Knowle, Solihull. On my mothers birth cert (June) it says father William Woods (no mention of Albert), mother is Dorothy Woods formerly Knowles, occupation of father Groom (domestic) 59 Maplewell Road, Woodhouse Eaves. Signed William Woods at same address. I’m assuming its Loughborough, as that is the registration district on the certificate. Hope this is a bit clearer for you. Thank you Wendy

	Dawn You will need an electoral roll lookup to help with your father.I do not have access to them,sorry. My main area of help is the census 1841-1901 and parish records.I do not generally help with post 1920 lookups as i do not have the records needed for these types of searches. I suggest you place a thread for help on the Records Office Board and see what a few heads can do. Sorry i can't help...for the BMD i would need Winifred's maiden name and an approx year of birth for Christine.There would have been many John Donovans on the BMD for 1920's-30's. Did your mother ever marry John? Michelle
