I cannot see a birth for Pauline with the same Mother's maiden name as your grandfather has.
Do you know the names of any other siblings, and is your grandfather still alive?
Thanks

Marriages Mar 1918
Booton John S Deakin Kings N. 6d 160
Deakin Mary J B_oton Kings N. 6d 1160

Postem to the entry added by a grandchild of the marriage


Why do you not ask your grandfather for his siblings' names?

The 3 brothers showing in free bmd are Horace, George and Harry.

Do you know when your grandparents married (and is her name Doris?)
Thanks

Sarah,

This isn't making sense. Pauline is a Booton, but she's George's sister's daughter?

I am not related to you and I'm not your husband's first wife!

Nelly may be a shortened version of another Christian name. There is a thread on GR with suggestions. Will try and find it.

Edit;

Signing off as website being very difficult. Thread number may be 2059008 would someone kindly check. Search carried out as Nelly on Genealogy Chat board.
Thank you

hi thanks for all your help but i have finally managed to make sense of what my grandad was trying to explain most of his brothers and sisters have different surnames such as stokes, deakin and booton. I have finally managed to find all his brothers and sisters thank you all for helping me and sorry again for any problems caused.
