Witnesses too may be connected

Re Annie & James Hesketh's children 1937 and 1938 -

(but realising this family may be a complete red herring!)

The 1938 son may have married in Ince in 1958.
Wife born 1935, and she died in Wigan reg district in 1998:

Betty Hesketh
in the England & Wales, Civil Registration Death Index, 1916-2007
Name: Betty Hesketh
Death Age: 62
Birth Date: 6 Jul 1935
Registration Date: Feb 1998
Registration District: Wigan and Leigh
Inferred County: Lancashire
Register Number: B7B
District and Subdistrict: 0181B
Entry Number: 26

Her husband may have died in Oldham RD in 2014.

They appear to have had up to five children , registered in Ince/Wigan/Manchester.

But bear in mind - it's not Kent, and not 28 Jan 1930.
And that 1929 birth may not have been illegitimate - you'd need the cert to be sure.

Argyll

That looks really promising

I have been playing around with name combinations but sidetracked because a tree on ancestry has her father as William

??? Wild grasping at straws -

Doesn't fit the DOB you give - but just in case worth investigating:


Births Sep 1929 (>99%)
Jones Olwen D Jones Wigan 8c 108

JONES, OLWEN DOREEN
GRO Reference: 1929 S Quarter in WIGAN Volume 08C Page 108

Possibly an illegitimate birth, though can't tell, as GRO website doesn't give mmns (or not, if illegitimate) after 1922.

Would fit with marriage in Ince - but not your mention of Kent as birthplace.

Is Kent what Olwen claimed?


??? Possible marriage of parents - IF the 1929 birth is illegitimate.

Annie Jones
in the England & Wales, Civil Registration Marriage Index, 1916-2005
Name: Annie Jones
Registration Date: Jan 1937[Feb 1937] [Mar 1937]
Registration Quarter: Jan-Feb-Mar
Registration District: Ince
Inferred County: Lancashire
Spouse: James Hesketh
Volume Number: 8c
Page Number: 259

Can't see that couple in 1939.

They may have had two children, registered in Ince, 1937 and 1938.


There are a couple of other Hesketh/Jones marriages 1929-1937 in other parts of Lancashire, but those couples are traceable in 1939.
Robert and Hannah, St Helens, have a closed record with them - presumably the child born in St Helens in 1938.
Peter D and Sarah J, Fylde, don't have any children or closed records with them in 1939..

The only William Hesketh born 1909 in Wigan who shows up on Ancestry is a child who died aged 4 in 1914.

Was she adopted, in which case her birth would be registered under a completely different name?

a tree on ancestry as her father as
William Hesketh
Birth 1909 • Wigan, Lancashire
Death Unknown

but no documentry proof

they have olwyn ad john dying in australia

Did she have any siblings that can be looked for on the 1939 register

Her birth will be on freebmd

Edit
There’s no birth so you would need the marriage cert for its info

This may be of interest to you
