Welcome to the boards Wendy

Her birth registration.

Do you know anything else about her to help find parents. There is no obvious marriage for parents England/Wales. Did she marry - if so to whom. Has she died - if so, when and where

Do you know anything about either parent ?

Might be best to get her birth certificate.

Unlikely to be an open record on 1939 register

Birth cert is the only way to get accurate info

GRO index will give second forename in full
