It would be amazing if she was alive. I need to find out who her children are now. I really appreciate all of your help

Looking at 192.com it looks like she may be in Wrexham on the 2016 electoral register. (I don't have 192 credits)

There's no Probate entry for a Kathleen M Valentine 2011-2016 nor Kathleen or M something Kathleen if her middle M name was the one she went by. On the other hand, not all Estates go to Probate

There is this?
Probate number Date of death Document type Registry
VALENTINE KATHLEEN MARY 27 October 2010 3362278 24 May 2010 Grant and will Ipswich

I was going by the 1955 marriage posted above.

Thought this was likely death for Ronald:

First name(s) RONALD OWEN
Last name VALENTINE
Gender Male
Birth day 14
Birth month 5
Birth year 1931
Death quarter 4
Death year 1991
District WREXHAM MAELOR
Register number 1291
County Denbighshire
Volume 24 Page 1075
-----------------------------------

I don't see a likely death for Kathleen up to 2006, although there is a Kathllen M Valentine listed on the 2012 electoral register in Wrexham that may be her.

Edit: Also listed 2012- 2014 at another address in Wrexham

I'm not sure if she is alive. I am trying to piece together my biological family tree as I'm adopted. I am hoping she is alive or if Ai can find out if she had any children that might lead me to my biological mother and brothers.

Is she still living then? If she died post 2006, someone who had a copy of her DC might have requested it to be opened.

FMP/NA are trying to match the death indices 1991-2006 to the names & dob shown on the register. It's usually easier with males than females who married.
Dad, 1923-2006, has been opened but Mum, 1919-2003, hasn't.

I'm not sure that Kathleen should be an open entry on the 1939 register!

Ah I see. Thank you! I'm new to all of this so u really appreciate your help :)

The Register was a working document until early 1991.

The original entry was as Kathleen Taylor. When she married, the original document was amended by crossing out Taylor and writing Valentine above it.
The Valentine (Taylor) transciption is a way of showing that although she was listed as Taylor in 1939, she was known as Valentine by the time she died. There is a notation of the image that the change was made on 17-12-5(1 or 7 it's not crystal clear)

You occasionally get transcribed entries where there are 3 surnames eg
Kendrick (Crowe, Hamilton)
As she was only a year old in 1939, we can see that she was living with Hamiltons which would have been her maiden name. From the handwritten changes and corresponding dates, it would appear she became a Crowe in 1957 then a Kendrick in 1963. Her death would have been registered in that name.
Sometimes its a bit awkward to get your head around. :-)

Just a quick question. On the 1939 register why is the name Taylor in brackets after Kathleen Valentine?

(perhaps better Zoe to keep to other relating 'Thread', otherwise will get more confusing!)

Not seeing a birth for a Hilda a taylor mmn Richardson

Edit. Found her mmn misspelt

Births Sep 1922
Taylor Hilda A L Richarson Birmingham 6d. 519

So same area as the 1939 register

Sorry I meant Sidney not Stanley. I'm tired and my brain is going to explode. My grandmother Dorothy Irene Taylor was born in Derby. I have an electoral roll of her living with Sidney and Hilda with her husband herbert in Birmingham. Unless I am wrong and they are not her parents.

Seems they moved around a bit

Births Mar 1926
Taylor Dorothy I Richardson West Derby 8b 1068

Qtr fits with a May birth

Births Jun 1930
Taylor Kathleen M Richardson Prescott 8b. 1328
