I didn't post the details as they might have been living people - but sometimes it can't be avoided.

You don't seem to have done any checking, Alexandra.


Marriages Jun 1920 (89%)

Pickett James Williams Southwark 1d 290

Can't find 'other half' at present.....not transcribed by freebmd

EDIT:

I've ploughed through the images on Ancestry.......the spouse is
WILLIAMS GRACE D.M.

As per the DEATH record.

There is an un-named Hanwell born Dec 1929 at Paddington - mother's maiden name Cunningham. Interesting.

Madmeg, I assume you mean this:

Births Sep 1928 (>99%)
Hanwell James Cunningham Willesden 3a 424

There is this too but now I'm totally confused!!

Births Dec 1929 (>99%)
Hanwell Male Cunningham Paddington 1a 59

If James is the one registered at Willesden, his mother's maiden name is Cunningham.

Both the births records of his children should give their mother's maiden name. Have you found them?

Hey all im at a real confussion with this one and im trying to get it to fit but finding it difficult James Pickett passed away 1954 the informant was his son J.Pickett (london areas wandsworth, southwark etc)..... I have information that James snr had 2 partners not sure on if a marriage Grace Williams b.1891 d.1968 and Annie Hanwell b1903. I have 2 children to James snr which is the confusing part... 1st born James (jack) pickett b1928 in kilburn and William James Hanwell b1929 in paddington. Im trying to establish wether James Sener married any other these women and im presuming Annie Hanwell is Williams mother due to surname but who is James (jack) mother?? these sons were only born 1 year appart and are now both deceased. The aim after this is to find out if the sons married but am confused with this one if anyone can help

thank you all x
