Or she may have just changed her last name without divorcing- but it definitely looks like they separated.

Thank you.

Maybe they divorced and that is why she went back to using her last name?

I think George E Johns died in Liverpool in 1961. He's still listed at the family home (65 Hardinge Road) in 1955 on the electoral registers (with a Mary A Johns), and still there in 1960 (listed on his own). I don't think he moved to Middlesex with Margrethe.

Johns Rita H Clusen Liverpool 8b 526

Not seeing Rita?

Both twins sadly died same year.

Might be worth looking at the Toxteth Park cemetery page, but the search is down at the moment, hopefully it will be repaired. http://www.toxtethparkcemetery.co.uk/

Is this one of the twins?

Johns Eric 0 Liverpool 8b 281

Sorry. It is 5. Twins I think, the last two.

You say in your original post that she had 4 children, but have listed five names

What a dope. ..sorry.

I didn't realise electoral registers were available.

Thank you so much for this brilliant help.

Canadian? You mean the electoral register? - this is Edmonton, London/ Middlesex UK.

The electoral registers are on Ancestry

Amazing....how can I see the Canadian record?

? she was born in 1901, so automatically open

Her death must have been picked up for the 1939 record to be open for her

She's on the electoral register in Liverpool with George E Johns until at least 1950.

After that she turns up in Edmonton in 1953 under Margrethe Johns.

From1957 she's still at the same address in Edmonton listed as Margrethe Clausen. This is her with daughter Olga:

1961 electoral register:

12 Berkeley Gardens, Edmonton.
Lionel F B Smith
Olga M K Smith
Margrethe Clausen
----------------------------

Margrethe is still at the same address in 1964

Thank you so much for all your efforts.................up to me to find out more info I think!!!!

This is NOT her ................ I though it might be a mis-spelling error.

Repeat ......... IT IS NOT HER
