Hi There people,
Would any body have any history on a lady called Joan Burton of South Manchester, she was a very good oil painting artist. Born 1928, died 2006, had a son called simon and a daughter called janice..that i know of..

Thanks
Ash

Have you tried googling?

I see both births surname tritton but there doesn’t seem to be a marriage for Joan to a mr tritton

Why not ask Simon as you seem to be connected!

The poster is on the ER at the same address as Joan, Janice and Simon in 2002-3

Wow what a lovely response, thankyou for all the speedy replies. I am no longer able to get information from Simon and Janice, they dont talk about it much and it is very hard to get any contact anymore. I live in Canada now. I used to live with my nanna Joan, but never did ask her history- wish i did. I have googled and tried AI chat GPT bots to no avail. I believe she had an uncle Stan, maybe from Gorton area, my grandad i never recall meeting but his name was Douglas. Would be nice to see the ancestry line, but i think she had other marriages and had a different name, that part is unclear. I have last address lived for her and i know she lived in 2 other places in south manchester before that while i was in england. Birth and death by day and month are correct born 7 march 1928, passed 15 dec 2006. Maybe your on the right path with tge 2 marriages as jones then burton , im confused on which is the birth name. Kinda new to this. Your guys response are great, i have a little credit on here, i will try look into your information.

Birth name BURTON, as you will see if you look at Simon and Janice's births on freebmd

https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

If you order a copy of her marriage cert, you'll find out her father's name, which is vital, as there are two births which could be hers - posted above by one of the helpers.

https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/app_select.asp

I think you are the first person to say they use a cthatbot on here.

There is a free website which is very good www.freebmd.org.uk

Certificates should only be purchased through the GRO at www.gro.gov.uk, if mothers maiden names on not listed on freebmd than you can find them on the GRO website.
The Family Search website is also free.

Maybe a free trial at one of the family history websites such as Ancestry or Find my past might be worth a go. But remember to cancel before the trial is up.

Apologies for the links, I am on an iPad and it doesn’t always allow them properly.

Confirmation that she'd been married before she married Douglas

Douglas is in the GR tree of a member other than you................try making contact

I did look back from the only information i got from Janice her daughter- douglas gordon tritton my grandad, joe burton, great grandad, charlotte burton great gran. She said " not too well informed on my fathers side, his mum owned a shop that made herbal remedies, there was something that wasn't allowed to be mentioned about the italian living there as a lodger " maybe her dads dads real dad. Im surprised i cant find any of her artwork in the exhibitions she had in manchester, i remember a small art exhibit in altrincham she had her work at. It maybe a secret life she had with the marriages and war going on, maybe never will find out.
Excellent information, what is the GR tree? Sorry for my lack of knowledge to this site.

i will check out the above

Look at the top right and see 'Search'. Click on it, then look at the drop-down menu.

Click on 'search all member trees'.....

Based on your info, the marriage posted yesterday at 07.59 is that of Joan's parents..................which makes her birth the one posted immediately below it

However, there are no closed records, so one has to wonder where Joan was..............
