Caris either the C or the G in the registration is a mistranscription.

Louise Calzetti is on the electoral roll up to 2004, there is no marriage for her to a kevin up to 2006, marriages since then are not listed online. She is not on the e roll with him either

Caris, thats NOT him, as I've just said that marriage was in the 70s , he's too old to be your Kevin

There’s no Kevin C mmn Laing on the Birth record

Edit it’s a mistrancription on find my past .will do a correction
I think genes get their records from find my past so the error has been carried over

That’s why it’s best to look at the actual typed record

And as said in your other thread no marriage to louise calzetti
She is on the electoral rolls as still calzetti

Caris -
you said Maureen is now Ann Ball.

Maureen's middle initial on her birth record is A. Does that mean she is now using her middle name?

I don't see the marriage of an Ann or Maureen Poynter to a Mr Ball.
Does that mean she just decided to change her name, as Kevin did, without marriage being involved?
(Or maybe it's a very recent marriage, not showing online yet?)

Are you in touch with her?

Judith and George together in 1970:

Judith Poynter
in the Sutton, Surrey, England, Electoral Registers, 1931-1970
View Sutton, Surrey, England, Electoral Registers, 1931-1970
Name: Judith Poynter
Year: 1970
Parliamentary Division: Beddington and Wallington, Surrey, England
House Number: 40
Reference Number: 038




There's a 1972 marriage in Sutton reg district (which includes Beddington) of a Judith Poynter and a David R Shaw.

It's only speculation, but -
that could perhaps fit with Michelle's birth with mms Griffiths in 1972, if George and Judith had separated between 1965 and 1971, and George had then had a relationship with Sheila - as already said, there's no sign of a marriage..

I have sent Caris an address for a 'possible' Kevin Billington in Surrey, living alone and possibly likely circumstances. No middle initial on entry but worth writing to I think.

Argyll Gran, on the info Caris sent me 4 years ago, Maureen has middle name Anne, how accurate all of it is I can't say given that it includes "marriages" that don't appear to have taken place. I couldn't see a marriage for her.

Re my suggestion of the 1972 marriage or Judith Poynter and David R Shaw -

That may not be correct.
That couple may have been living in Leatherhead, Surrey in 2002 - in which case Judith Shaw had middle initial C.

Judith Laing had no middle initial at marriage - though of course that doesn't necessarily mean it's not her.

Rambling

Rambling Report 23 Oct 2019 11:45

Judith doesn't have a middle initial on the most likely birth for her either.

thanks guys for helping, yes iv found maureen (ann ball) but dont have contact nomore.

still no luck with the michelle poynter i was given address but isnt the same michelle

did kevin billington have any chilfren can we find out?

Rambling

Rambling Report 23 Oct 2019 19:32

Unless Kevin married it's likely any children he may have had would be registered in their mother's name. The only way you're going to find out is to write to the address and see if it's the right one first.

As far as Michelle goes, there is no obvious marriage, and as said her name may have changed if her mother remarried.

If the Michelle K Poynter who married Kevin C Scott and who lives in Milton Keynes isn't your Michelle, I don't see who else she can be.

I can't see a marriage of a Michael Poynter to a Michelle.

Nor do I see the birth of any other Michelle K Poynter.


Is there any chance she thought you were some sort of scammer, and gave you false names???

Rambling

Rambling Report 23 Oct 2019 23:40

Caris, who gave you the file that had Sheila Griffiths as mother? They must have been closely related to know the first name of Michelle's mother as that would only show on the birth cert.

There are several marriages in Surrey for a Sheila Griffiths in the 1980s (assuming she was still in Surrey), so as I've said Michelle might not have kept the name Poynter.

Or as Argyll Gran says you may have found the right one, but she was not sure or just doesn't want to know.

How did you contact Michelle?
Did you phone, or write?

I think if someone phoned me up out of the blue and asked if I was the daughter of A and B, I would be very suspicious and disinclined to give any information.

A letter is always preferable in cases like this. A letter gives the recipient the chance to think about it for a while, maybe ask other people's opinions, and maybe check out your address to see if you are a real person at a real address.
