Going by the girls' dates of birth, it must be the first Forster / Gallon marriage , in 1943.

You can find it on FreeBMD, Keown.

Therefore, their mother's birth was in Newcastle on 19 Feb 1914. Her mother's maiden name was Horn.
She (Ann & Christine's mother) died in Gateshead in 2003.

A possible mothers maiden name is Gallon.


Is there an older sister Margaret?

There are two possible Forster/Gallon marriages.

Keown Report 29 May 2017 15:06

My Grandmother and her sister's names are Ann Boyd (Second Marriage) or Kennedy (First Marriage) and Christine Murley, their maiden name is Forster.

I have been trying to find their mother for a while now, however, when I search each of their births, none of the mothers maiden names match.

I think they were both born in the 1940's in the North East of England.

Would anyone be able to help me?

Thanks
