OOOH AG well done on finding that. There was a Hannah Stanton born 1891 and I wonder if that has been mistranscribed.

Sorry must away to work now.

Thanks, alviegal - I've added postems for both Jane and Hannah.

The freebmd transcribers had given them each the wrong page number.

Thanks AG...easy mistake to make but with the potential to send people off on wild goose chases. One of the hazards of this genealogy lark. :-D

Can't believe it's been so long since I started this thread! Still being given the run around by some of them.

I finally found the marriage of Rachel Winifred Mabel Shwankey/ Swankey to Reginald James Rainforth in Cardiff 1926. She married as Mabel Winifred Sankey and was 23, a couple of years short of her real age. Sadly Reginald died a few months later when his ship went missing off Bermuda and all were presumed dead. She was not named in his probate record. He was from Hull.

My problem is now finding either a second marriage or a death for Mabel Winifred. I just can't find her at all.

Her father is named as James Stuart Sankey, dec marine engineer. Can't find anything on him either.

Have you found her on 1939 register?

No I haven't found anything after her marriage in 1926 ErikaH.

Not what you wanted, but there's another child a year before she married Rooney:

Births Mar 1913
Swankie Rosina M Morgan Cardiff 11a 953

Rose

Now Rose you have just possibly solved another mystery with this family whilst giving me yet another headache :-D

On 25th Dec 1912, my husband's grandmother was born. She was Kathleen Rooney aka Cass and I've never been able to find a birth for her under Shwanky or Rooney. She married Thomas Partridge in 1931 as Kathleen Rooney, father James Rooney, dec electrical engineer. Her siblings all changed their names to Rooney and her sister, Violet and brother, Ronald James were witnesses. Her death is as Kathleen and in the 1939 Register she is also Kathleen.

The birth you have found for Rosina fits with Kathleen's birth but why, oh why would she change her name like that? Looks like I'll have to order yet another certificate :-S
