Hi everyone. Hope someone can help. I have used 1837 online earlier in my research, but rarely need it now. However after the funeral of my nan last week, my dad discovered that he had had another aunt who had died before her first birthday. My dad is really interested to know if she was registered and what her name was. She would have been the twin sister of my great uncle Raymond Champney Whitehead and would have been registered at the same time. He was born 16th February 1922. I really hope someone can help, Jon and Suzie.

Hi John, I dont mind looking for you, but can you give me an area if poss please? Debs x

hi i have found a raymond 1922 j/f/m mothers maiden name virgin born coventry ? i will look next q area would be good if you have it tracy

Hi Twinklestar, I found that too.. but without another clue its guess work isnt it? A mothers maiden name and or area would be great. Debs x

Tracy, I think I will wait and see if he comes back with a reply.. Debs x

hi debs yes i think so to otherwise its like looking for a needle in a haystack lol tracy

Tracy thats what I thought too!!! LOL Debs x

Now theres a lesson to us all! ALWAYS take a pen and paper to a funeral LOL Gerri x

Thankyou very much, I didn't say too much and see if anyone replied first. Yes Raymond was the son of A wHITEHEAD AND A vIRGIN AND THE SISTER THE SAME, MAYBE SHE WASN'T REGISTERED, BUT MY DAD WAS TOLD SHE LIVED A FEW MONTHS.

Gerri, You just say what a lot of people think!! LOL But will remember that one, must admit to always having paper in pen in my handbag!! How sad is that? Debs x

Jonathon, Will have another look for you then.. Debs x

Jon, Cant find her in the same qu as Raymond, will look to see if she was born the yr before or after.. I know you said she was a twin but maybe someone got that a bit mixed up. Debs x

hi ive looked again but cant find a match ? sorry tracy

Do we have an area yet? or am I missing something?

Gerri, Area - Coventry Mothers maiden name - Virgin Surname - Whitehead Debs x

Thanks people, maybe they didn't register her because she was very ill. When was Raymond registered by the way. Can anyone find a death in Coventry around the same time? Thanks for your response.

hold on there !!!!! This takes time...dont think we have given up on you.

Jon, Raymond was registered J/F/M 1922 No sign of any other children born to this family in 1921 or 1923, and to register a death you would have needed to register the birth surely, though I did check Mar qu deaths and nothing matched. Debs x

Raymonds birth.... Coventry mothers maiden name Virgin 6d-1348 1st quarter
