I cannot find 2 people i am anxiously looking to find. IRENE MARY CORRAN, she lived in Dolwen In Trawsfynydd In 1942, she was married to WILLIAM ALBERT DICCOX. She had 2 daughters VALERIE DICCOX AND JOYCE DICCOX, they were both born In Barmouth, County Of Merioneth In 1942 and 1943. The other person I am looking for Is PERCIVAL MARSH. He had a wife called BEATRICE MAY WINSON, she was born in newport in 1898 and died in 1986. I think PERCIVAL MARSH would have been born around the same time as BEATRICE. I would appreciate help on this, thanks!

The date of birth for Beatrice must be wrong. I have found her death on 1837online as follows:- Beatrice May Marsh, death October 1986, Swindon, vol 23, page 2099, reg. no. 1086 It gives date of birth as 14th April 1898. I have checked 1837online for the birth of Beatrice May Winson in the June and Sept, qtrs of 1898 and there is no birth recorded in that year. Whoever registered the death must have got the date of birth wrong. People often give the right date but the wrong year. You need to check for her birth a couple of years before and after 1898.

Percival and Beatrice should be on FreeBMD. Percival might be down as Percy.

If Beatrice isn't on 1837 births for 1898, she won't be on FreeBMD. The year must be wrong. Kath. x

Karl, you need the marriage certificate for Irene, to tell you how old she was. Not know when she was born is like looking for a needle in a haystack. If you ask nicely, someone here might get you the reference. PS, please stop posting so many threads - we can't keep up! lol
