That's the one I found and disproved earlier ............... she would have been in her late 50s in 1921!

Re-posting my earlier posts on Mary Elizabeth .................

-----------
Working on the principle that Elizabeth Gallon might be older, I looked for marriages between a Mr Wilson and an Elizabeth Gallon form 1900 to 1921 ....... i didn't look before 1900. The following was the only one that I found on freebmd

Marriages Dec 1900 (>99%)

Gallon Mary Elizabeth Portsmouth 2b 1156
Wilson Thomas Tinnion Portsmouth 2b 1156


This looks like Thomas Tinnion's Birth Registration .....

Births Sep 1872 (>99%)
WILSON Thomas Tinnion Whitehaven 10b 566


I then found this Probate Record on ancestry .............

England & Wales, National Probate Calendar (Index of Wills and Administrations), 1858-1966

Name: Thomas Tinnion Wilson
Probate Date: 8 Feb 1917
Registry: Exeter
Death Date: 12 Nov 1916
Death Place: Devon, England

from image:-
of Mill Street, Sidmouth, Devonshire, grocer, died 12 November 1916 at the Devon County Asylum, Exminster, Devonshire. Probate granted Exeter 8 February 1917 to Thomas Gallon, engineer, and Mary Elizabeth Wilson, widow.
Effects £454 1s


The following death registration matches the probate record, St Thomas is the Registration District that includes Exminster ...........

Deaths Dec 1916 (>99%)
Wilson Thomas T 43 St.Thomas 5b 88


But then my possible theory came to a screeching halt %3A-%28

If the information on the 1901 and 1911 Censuses is accurate, Mary Elizabeth would be too old to have a child in 1921 %3A-%28

Mary Elizabeth seems to have certainly been born ca 1866

This looks like her in 1881 (from FMP as ancestry has stopped working for me) .....

1881 Census

George Gallon Head Married Male 44 1837 Rly Engine Driver Northumberland, England

I really doubt that someone born in 1864-1866 would have had a child in 1921, at the age of ca 55


Back to the drawing board!

It was a good theory while it lasted!!!!!

as a thought could Elizabeth Gallon married before she married a Wilson ??

that would account for no marriage as Elizabeth Gallon to a Wilson.


Gallon surname seems to be a orientated around Tynemouth area 1910 /1930

found very few birth's for Wilson - mth Gallon all within Tynemouth

Mary C Wilson 1912 Tynemouth parents maybe William Wilson and Sarah Gallon = 1912

only these up to 1930 mth Gallon --- may have been 2 mothers nee Gallon
going by 2 births in 1924

Chin L Wilson 1921 Runcorn

Frank Wilson 1922 Tynemouth

Gladys Wilson Sep1924 Tynemouth
Rhoda Wilson Dec 1924 Tynemouth

Alan F Wilson 1928 Tynemouth

Thanks Mavis
I have no information regarding my grandmother Elizabeth Gallon other than she had my father in 1921 she registered her name as Elizabeth Wilson so i presume she was married before my dad's birth (also my dad's father is not Wilson) It would help if i can find my grandmother's birth certificate but all i remembered my dad saying was that she was Welsh, the only address i have is 89 Church St Runcorn
Reading from the replies i have seen, it may be possible that Wilson was killed (WW1)
Thanks

Bit of a mare with the names or what!

Hopefully Martin might recognise a name or three! Eleanor' second name might well fit, with the daughter being called Mabel

Martin, if Mabel Wong has passed away, you can upload her death certificate to FMP to ask for the (1939 register) record to be opened. You can see on the info I posted that there are records closed and one of them might be Mabel

Dear all
Thanks again for your inputs, i really do appreciate all your efforts putting together bits of information
My mother Mable Lee (formerly Wong) is still alive living in Los Angeles, California, she is 87 and her memory is not what it use to be and digging up the past might cause her undue stress
Considering she has had 10 children and worked 18 hours a day in the laundry business i think she has done well
I have no idea about my grandparents on my mom's side, she has 2 sisters still living in LA, one died this year (auntie Annie)
when i go over to see her early next year i willl ask her about names you mentioned, certainly the names mentioned above dont ring any bells
:-)

Hello Mavis
On my dad's birth certificate,his mother's name was Elizabeth Wilson (formerly Gallon) in 1921 so she either was married or had her name changed, i really dont know,i can only reason that my grandmother was born somewhere between 1986 & 1904 assuming that she was 35 when she had my dad in 1921, which seems unlikely (i reckon she must have been in her 20's when she had my dad
Maybe i am wrong but i am clutching at straws here

Martin

Martin Report 17 Jul 2016 16:56

How can i find out more information about my grand mother when all i have is her name on my dad's birth certificate but there is no mention when she was born, where she came from, what her background family was etc. Her address at that time (1921) when my father was born was 89 Church St, Runcorn, Cheshire. I have exhausted the search but seem to come up against a brick wall.
I really appreciate all the information i have gained so far from those who have helped me but the last piece of the puzzle is still missing
