Not seeing any of the marriages you give names for .

Did your dad marry before or after he married your mum

Unless you lived with him and his other wife then she isnt your stepmom but your dads other wife

Researching:
Surname Fahse. Germany. Essex .South East London My avatar is one of our wedding photos of 1957

Sahira posted in the early hours by British time, which does not mean that the marriages did not happen here, but would like confirmation before any more looking.

Four marriages on FMP for Sayed A H Shah........none matches the info provided above

And no record of a marriage for anyone named Shah to anyone whose forename is Firdous

Sahira records her birthplace as Queens Park Hospital, but gives no location info.

No record of a Queens Park Hospital in the area of the birth above..............there's one in Blackburn, and one in the London area

There is a Shah/Khatun marriage in the same area as the birth posted above...in 1978

Reggie,
Are you sure that birth is the same Sahira?

The person born Queens park Hospital has an old account number so probably not the poster

Researching:
Nothing much

There's only one Sahira Shah listed on GR...............but, I guess this poster hasn't used her maiden name..........and I must confess I didn't cross-refer membership number info

I do wish women would use their maiden names in their GR trees.............

However, that aside..................there still isn't any marriage info in England/Wales to tally with what has been posted at the top

If the poster returns, she may be able to shed some light..................it's needed.
