Thanks Mike

I dont think thats her becaue her parents were married as follows:

Name: George W Mead
Spouse Surname: Noble
Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1916
Registration district: Whitby
Inferred County: Yorkshire North Riding
Volume Number: 9d
Page Number: 880

Of course they could have put the cart before the horse but it seems unlikely that they would return to Yorkshire to marry if they already had a child.

Do you also know death details for Amy? Thought this might help with confirming possible births.

Hi Gritty

I dont know but I could try and find out.

Its surprising how little others actually know about their families.

Just looking at the other marriage posted by Greyghost - There appears to be only one birth to the marriage in Whitby- Jennifer 1950.

I don't suppose you know if Sheila had a sibling Jennifer?

According to Sheila's son yes, but I'm wondering if Arthur was actually Alfred as you have posted. I did find that one on Ancestry and sort of wondered if that could be the correct one. I did do a search for an Alice A Mead in Loftus but again came up with a blank.

Thanks for the reply. Sometimes another pair of eyes is a great help.

Can't seem to find her marrying an Alderson.

I'm losing the will to live with this one! :-S

Mmm, Interesting. I suppose that is a possibility.

My mind has gone numb with this one!

I suppose I could do a search for an Amy Mead marrying an Alderson.

Thank you

Any chance she could have been previously married? Loftus very close to Whitby, although not in RD. Sheila's birth registered Whitby RD with mother's maiden name as Mead

Hi

As someone who does family tree's as a hobby I suddenly find myself asking for help as I seem to have hit a brick wall with this.

A friend of mine has asked me to do a basic tree for his fathers 80th birthday (this saturday!) and I'm struggling with a couple of families:

Arthur Charles Hambly born 1913 St Austell, Cornwall

married Amy Mead, not sure of her birth year but she was born in the Loftus area of Yorkshire/Cleveland. Her father may have been George William Mead (1894, Loftus)

I cant find a marriage for Arthur and Amy but I can find the birth of her daughter Shiela in 1941 in Yorkshire.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.


Linda
