Which area of the country would this be? And is there anything else you know about her or her husband that might help in the search for her?

Have you only checked England/Wales records? Might she have been born somewhere else? Adopted? Unmarried but took her partners surname?
Could she have been a Sylvia rather than a Silver?

Where did you get the name from in the first place?

Sylvia Wise is in a tree on here, have you contacted the tree owner for more information?
Except that the birth is Kettering.

Do you know if she is alive or dead?

Added:

Your heading is 'silver shaw formely a wise'

Do you mean that you think she was born as Silver A Wise (so would be Sylvia A Wise) and where did you obtain her date of birth?
Thanks

Well I've puzzled over it a few times too! :-)

It sounded to me like the person Silver Shaw was formerly Silver Wise. (as in: my mother is a Smith but used to be a Jones)

Silver as a name is usually a man ...

It looks like maybe David's auto spell check betrayed him (but twice?)

Proofreading, and especially correct names, are essential when looking for someone. And capital letters on names really help a lot. And yes, locations are essential as well.

Otherwise no one has any idea who to look for and where to look.

David, if the name is not correct in your first post, you can use the edit link in your post to fix it. (But please also add a message here using Detective's instructions so we know something has been added.)

Also, the exact birthdate of someone who is not known to be dead should not be posted here.

David accessed the message sometime during the day. Mind you, if he'd been using an internet enabled mobile phone, he might not have been in a position to reply.
