The 'Home' person on a tree on Ancestry is his daughter. The tree is owned by bk_davis61.

If you don't have access to Ancestry, look for the same tree on Mundia.com
You have to register, but it is free. Then you can contact the tree owner and ask if there is a connection - don't say at this stage that you are also Nora's daughter as Nora may have left Mr Phelps before she was born.

Use these details as given on her tree

I don't think there is much doubt that the info found is for the right person

The grave monument application was from Ancestry - he was entitled as a veteran.

The marriage to AC Phelps is recorded twice - so it's her

recorded as Nora I Morrison and Nora I Mcintyre

but I'm not finding them subsequent to this, it would be better if we had his full name, so maybe this marriage cert is a must

Yes Frederick Finney was still alive and went on to remarry.

Nora Isabella Morrison married Frederick Finney in 1946.They had a son Brian in 1947.She left them not long after and I was born in 1950 in Warrington (father not know)Her mother and grandmother often used different surnames when remarrying so Nora could have also.I made contact with her nephew recently and it was him who told me she lived in Oklahoma but he will not tell me anything else.

So.............was Finney still alive when she left the country?

True, the USAF etc do still have a presence in the UK - it was the use of the term GI which I wondered about. It rather fell out of use after WW2 ended

The link to the MacIntyre headstone explains why she could have remarried. He died in 1957. It looks like a military style headstone

Where did you find that (added Burial Certificate) Flip?

I'm going to PM the application for burial monument - it is signed by Nora Isabella McIntyre, address Charlotte St, Pottstown PA in 1957

It's irritating me that I can't find any further records for a Nora with the birth date quoted. :-|

If Mr Phelps (if the marriage is correct) was also a AAF serviceman he could have been posted overseas and she went with him?

There is still an AAF presence in the UK. One of our offspring had been asked to witness a passport application for a child. The Father is based in Lakenheath, the mother is South African they were married and child(ren) born in Suffolk! Their descendants are going to have a fine time sorting that one out

:-D

Death of first husband - although she is not mentioned on the headstone:
