Find Living Relatives

Emma, I now have Sylvia's marriage certificate, and have ordered the certificates of their likely 2nd marriages.

Please check your messages if you see this - Carole was not the only child to be placed for adoption.

Sylvia was born Sylvia May EYRE 1909 Belper. Her parents were William EYRE and Emma NALLY. Emma died 1910, and William remarried.

His name is given on the arriage certificate of Sylvia and Alfred, occupation miner.

The marriage cert will give info about the father - as provided by the bride. No guarantee that it is accurate.

Doreen's death in 2008:

THOMAS, DOREEN SYLVIA 1931
GRO Reference: DOR Q2/2008 in DERBY (3941C) Reg 1C003 Entry Number 38

Emma, I am also researching this family. Carole was not the only child to be adopted.
I’ve sent you a message on here.

I have ordered the marriage certificate for Alfred and Sylvia, which will also give us Sylvia’s correct parentage.
