I have an aunt and a cousin whom I have never spoken to and who are quite possibly no longer alive. I am not having any success finding anything concrete in order to follow this. Can anyone help please ~ Name Audrey E Arnold 1934 West Ham her parents were Mabel A Arnold 1912 London and Arthur B Saunders 1909 West Ham. Mabel and Arthur married 1933 West Ham.
Any help would be gratefully received.
Thank you

Look for the deaths of the parents............find out from the certs who registered them. It may have been the daughter

How could the daughter's name be Arnold, if she was born AFTER the marriage?

A tree on Ancestry has a death for Mabel in 1947, Arthur appears to have remarried, you might try contacting the tree owner if you have an Ancestry sub?
