Find Living Relatives

Martina has read my private message giving contact info for one of Brenda's children, at least that I am nearly positive is the right person.

No reply as yet.


The death info for Brenda matches the quarter of her birth registration, and the marriage for the right name in the right place, so I think it's all pretty certain.

someone at Genes does have Brenda in their tree, so I pointed that out to Martina as well.

There is a grant and will for Dorothy Rosemary Cook in 2001. Apply for the will for information that might name children and their spouses and grandchildren?

Yes that was the marriage I found and sadly her death

Had checked back several times for your reply before posting the info just in case it wasn't the right lady

Martina, if you could edit your first message it would help

put

Ronald Cook and Brenda Cook - still need help

Because you have marked a post as answered, your entire thread unfortunately shows as answered (so it looks like you don't need any more help).

And it is always best to put names in the subject line, and use full names. That way there is a chance that if someone does an internet search for the name, they will find your message.

Were their parents Dorothy R Rowley and Gilbert Cook?
(they would be your grandparents)

using that information ... apparently no one has them in their family tree at this site

you should make a tree and put your father and your grandparents in it, so if anyone searches for them in trees here, they will find you

(make sure to keep your email address in your account here up to date, so if someone sends you a message, you get it)



unfortunately there is sad news for Brenda I think.

She married James Tilley in 1960 in Taunton
and she died in January 1994

Name: Brenda Rosemary Tilley
Birth Date: 3 Feb 1940
Age at Death: 53 (in Jan 1994)
Registration district: Ealing
Inferred County: London


no death seems to be registered for Ronald up to 2007, but unfortunately there is no easy match for a marriage for him ... there are a dozen Ronald C Cook marriages in the 1960s and 1970s, but none in Somerset. Except for a possible in Bristol?


Three Tilley children with mother Cook were born in Ealing where Brenda died, and their middle names would match with being children of your Brenda. Did you know any cousins who were her children?


I'm going to send you info for contacting child J.R.T. privately.

I know Brenda was married but I don't know addresses for either of them as I was just a kid when my dad died

Do you know Brenda's second Christian name please

Mmn Rowley
