Hi ErikaH think I have just found them on 1939 register . it must be same family William Redfearn , Ellen Redfearn,record closed , Kathleen , Joyce , Anthony . could it be that the record closed is Hilda also Redfern was spelt Redfearn

Thank you ErikaH for the deaths of the Redfern family I have been trying to fine some history of the family and Southey hill road to see if there is any mention of them but nothing coming up

No record of the family on 1939 register

Will try to send a copy of the record of their deaths - check your inbox

Hilda Barnes

Death Age: 75
Birth Date: 16 Jun 1919
Registration Date: Dec 1994

Register Number: E52A
District and Subdistrict: 0811E
Entry Number: 7


There was a Barnes/Redfern child born in Chesterfield RD in 1945 with the first name of one of Hilda's sisters - but may be coincidence;

I wonder what happened to poor Hilda, who was presumably not in the house at the time - or maybe she was but survived.
.
She'd lost all her family and her baby.

Perhaps you know what happened to her - you don't mention her in your opening post, but maybe you were aware of a Hilda in your family?

Thank you ArgyllGran for your help

Births Sep 1938 (>99%)
Redfern Anthony W (mms Reffern ) Sheffield 9c 649

"Reffern" is a mistrancription on FreeBMD. On the image his mother's maiden name was Redfern.

So Anthony was the illegitimate child of William & Ellen's eldest daughter Hilda :

Hi ErikaH thank you so much for your help . so it sounds like their house was bombed so sad . Just looked on the CWGC site and I found Anthony William Redfern aged 2 born 1938 . he also died at the same address but mother as been Hilda,do you think it should say Ellen as mother thanks

Just looked at the CWGC site. Their deaths are on there. Check it out.

If they died as a result of enemy action in WW2, the records will be on the CWGC site

The cause of death will also be on any of the death certs, which you will be able to purchase when the current emergency ends

Hi please can some one help please. I have a William Redfern born 1899 married Ellen Griffen born 1888 her father was Fred Griffen . William and Ellen had children Kathleen born 1921 and Joyce born 1926 they were all born Sheffield. But the thing is they all died on 14th of March 1941 at 43 Southey Hill Road Parson Crooss Sheffield . Idid here that a family of Redferns from that area had died from a bomb but not sure as it was told to me from an old relative when I was very young so not sure if it was true, so please can some one help to find if it was true thanks
