Can't find her on the census!

No, they married too late. (That's if Gladys was indeed born 1908 - I can't see her birth on FreeBMD.)

This would be the marriage of the above Harry and Nelly:

I can't see her birth either, nor on the 1911 census.

No sign of Herbert Pigden in 1911.

No Brusch / Pigden marriage in England/Wales.
No Brusch marriage to a Gladys of any surname.

Where did you get your information, Doreen?

I wish these posters would stay with the thread to answer our questions.

Born in 1908 but not married untill 1939, not impossible I know but it is also possible that she was married before and Pigden was her married name?

Spouse Surname: Pigden

Registration district: Fulham
Inferred County: London
Volume Number: 1a
Page Number: 832

Marriages Dec 1936 (>99%)
Pigden Herbert G Roberts Fulham 1a 832

............so could Herbert be her husband and not her father????

There is a Gladys V.Roberts born in Fulham in 1915 so later than stated so maybe not?

Births Jun 1915 (>99%)
Roberts Gladys V May Fulham 1a 532

EDIT
There's also a Herbert G.Pigden born in Fulham

Births Jun 1914 (>99%)
PIGDEN Herbert G Taylor Fulham 1a 449

so no connection to Great Yarmouth?

Have you got the correct spelling?

1911 census: Gladys Ethele PIDGEON 4yrs Ilford, Essex. Father shows as Henry PIDGEON 40yrs.Edmonton, Middlesex.
Living Islington.

BMD's: Gladys Ethel PIDGEON 1906Q4 Romford, Essex

That's a possibility, Catherine.

On the other hand, here's the marriage of a Herbert Pigden in Yarmouth in 1907 -- Gladys's father??
