ah, I had not noticed the rereg date, so yes, that does seem less likely then maybe ...

really, when the birth certificate has been sent for, any barking at all seems rather pointless at this point! :-D
Nobody could possibly know or find anything more than it will disclose.

Just reread the post and saw your earlier post JC, surely it's too much of a coincidence?

Pam states she knows the child's name so maybe we are barking up the wrong tree? Also noted the 1946 birth was registered in 1967, when the child obviously turned 21.

that is the question I asked a long time ago and got no answer to :-)

(understandable if privacy is a concern ... the thing is, if that is the birth, there's no obvious way that a JK Faulk would have come into it)

Hi Pam,

The child born in 1946, the mothers maiden name is the same as Jeans, the child is also registered under that surname too......indicating to me that the parents weren't married at the time, is this the correct child?

I would like to thank you for all your help. I have been unable to give you the names for JK Faulk because I don't know them The information I have given was from my Son-in Law to be who I am researching the USA family side of his tree for. I will try to obtain any more details if possible. Kind regards Pam

Margee, that's why I'm wondering if the death was registered as Aston? (But still not seeing anything likely).

But the only Faulk who was born 1911 and died 1968 in USA was John Faulk died in Lake Charles, Louisiana.

I'm getting a little tired ...

What I edited out on the previous page was links to telephone directory listings for the surname in question in the area of the US state in question, not to individuals but to collections of names.

I also edited out my response to the very odd comments by another poster all of which did not relate to the thread.

oh, did you mean the 'bigamy' was a gossipy supposition? actually it was a little joke. And as far as being not married, with no evidence of a marriage ..........

I have no idea what suppositions I am now alleged to have edited frankly but perhaps my memory is failing me.

I do find it odd that people make such comments.

JoonieCloonie, I see you've edited your previous posts, probably because you've now done the exact same thing you berated others for - putting forward suppositions in a gossipy manner.

Four years between marriages is plenty time to obtain a divorce, even then.

I just can't see how they could have been married, at least not at the time of the birth

for the Mr to marry a mere 4 years later, he would have had to be widowed or obtain a very quickie divorce in the terms of those days

or be a bigamist of course, and some of us do have 'em :-)

The 3 children that JoonieCloonie mention arrived in England in 1955. They were US citizens and were accompanied by their mother Rubie E who was born in 1926.

Using the maiden name from the birth record on the link above indicates she was born in Maryland as per US census.

I would say that eliminates them.

If the Faulk lady who is the subject of the query was married to Aston then I guess her death would be registered in that name? (Unless she remarried).

Could you maybe give just the slightest hint as to where this name 'JK Faulk' has come from?

why you have initials but not a name, how you come to have dates of birth and death, if you have a name why you are not giving it

(I perfectly understand protecting privacy but how is anyone to know how to help, and how would anyone who knew anything find this thread even if they searched for the name on the internet for instance?)

I guess I am particularly curious how you have the dates and places of birth and death, which bear such a curious resemblance to those of a male person with the identical and very uncommon name.

It could help considerably if you would give some response to things that have been said :-)

the child born in 1946 is the child of Edgar Charles Aston and JK Faulk I am tracing the tree of the USA connection and any other children they may have had and any information on JK Faulk. I do know the name of the child born in 1946 The marriage of Edgar Charles Aston to Jean Thornton was in 1950 in England and I should be able to trace this side back when I get the marriage certificate many thanks Pam

That 1950 marriage is the info given by Pamela earlier

Pamela if you know who the child is and are waiting for the birth certificate, what is it you are actually asking in this thread?

are you absolutely certain that the Aston-Thornton birth in 1946 in the same place as the other births to the marriage is not the one you are after?

the correct Edgar Charles Aston is the one born in 1921 Coventry I am awaiting birth cert for the child born in 1946 many many thanks again Pam

Is it possible that she had more children in the UK?

There are passenger records for 3 Faulk children born after 1946 all with initial V travelling to the US ... the common initial could suggest another surname ... those children were not born in England under the name Faulk in any event.

this is the death of one of those children

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JR1N-F6V

edit - I will leave that to rule out those children, but the V was for Von and born in the US

birth of the oldest of the three

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/V2W9-7FD

a slight Louisiana connection

(not posting details here because people likely living)


The male JK Faulk who has been considered is in family trees at Ancestry mirrored at the free site http://www.mundia.com
and that would be another source of potential contacts to consider

the only Edgar C Aston birth in the index is 1921 Coventry

edit, no apparent match in passenger lists

also from what I can tell no match for a JK Faulk entering the UK

It does seem rather unlikely that they actually married I would think.

It also makes it seem rather unlikely that she was born in 1911, given Edgar's age.

it actually looks rather like all the personal details of the male JK Faulk (date and place of birth, date and place of death) have just been applied to someone else ...

Have deleted any posts I'd made that related to a male Faulk.

Pamela - what year was Edgar Charles Aston born? Reason for asking is that he may have crossed the Atlantic, if we can find a passenger list where she's with him we might get her name.

Was she Faulk before or after she married him (i.e. did she remarry at some point?)

How very odd, since the male JK Faulk born in Louisiana in 1911 appears in the US census in Louisiana and was in the US military and died in 1968 ... but no female JK Faulk appears in any US census in Louisiana ... and that you didn't know the person was female ... or if you did, didn't mention it!

The son was apparently not registered in either surname with Faulk as the mother's surname.

So all in all one might think that it was a married surname perhaps.

The very easy way to find out her full name(s) would be to obtain the child's birth certificate ... Or is it the child you are actually looking for and you don't know the name?

You are sure that she wasn't "Mrs JK Faulk" ie that the JK were her husband's initials? it seems odd that you would know a year of birth and a year of death and then have initials but not a name, unless it is from an address book or a letter or some such ... but the exact dates of birth and death ... ?
