looking for a friend tracing her adopted mother,
her adopted mum was married twice so if we could just find one record of either it would give her year of birth and fathers name.

so JEAN SMITH, yeh I KNOW, born in the 1930s who married a mr brendon probably in the 1960s prob kent area.

she then married a mr skinner, so would it be jean smith or jean brendon then married mr skinner because I cant find either, thanks

Have you looked in the full records? If so, which images have you looked at?

Denise - did you search the indexed pages on Ancestry and if so what years did you check?

leesle Report 22 Feb 2008 17:03

hi thanks for replying I put in 1960s plus or minus twenty years

The years you are looking for are not free. They are only on the full records on either Ancestry or findmypast

Ok - well in case anyone else is looking - save people looking at the same thing - I have checked 1960 and 1961 so far and nothing yet.

thanks my dear, someone has found a death for a jean skinner in that area in 2004 if I can get the details we can take a look see what it says, what a shame if its her

FamilyFogey

FamilyFogey Report 22 Feb 2008 17:11

Also 1962 and 1963 - nothing yet.

If anyone else is looking - perhaps they could try from 1970 and work backwards?

FamilyFogey

FamilyFogey Report 22 Feb 2008 17:12

I have been searching for a while and there is no marriage of a jean smith-brendon between 1955-1970.

FamilyFogey Report 22 Feb 2008 17:24

ok Richard - thanks for that! Saves me looking during the 60s - If that Jean Skinner was born in 1939 makes sense to look in the 70s for a marriage now.
