Diane, could you say if this is her married or maiden name, and when she was born? People might be able to help a bit if you give a little more info. |

Is she the mother of your mother or your father? Do you know when or where your parent(s) were born and their names? |

Don't know if this has already been found (didn't read through the whole of your earlier thread) - but this is Edith Hall and Elizabeth Muriel Hall in the 1939 Register:- |

Yes, Kathleen, I investigated Muriel quite thoroughly, on page 3 of that thread. :-) |

Hi Kathleen and Joonie Cloonie thank you for your advise ,I did Chase up the Mutual Hall you found but just like with Ethel sadly again reached a dead end , looked into marriages etc but nothing ,the only conclusion I can come to is that perhaps she emigrated :-( |
