Start by looking for their names in 'search all member trees'

If anyone has them listed, send a contact message

If you want people to help with research, give more info, such as birth years, and, in the woman's case,maiden name

A tip, if I may..................

Be careful about what you post on here about living people, as invasion of privacy is not acceptable

So the death posted above is NOT the one who married


THIS is the correct death for that one

Deaths Dec 1941 (>99%)
Berson Gladys I 27 Romsey 2c 113

Which takes us back to the one whose birth matches the 1953 death, and the info provided by Linda is for a different Gladys

I didn’t think I’d seen a berson connection any where. But Elaine Baxter’s birth certificate says buckrose -Yorkshire?

Rambling

Rambling Report 31 Oct 2019 16:43

As well as Elaine's there are other Baxter/Baxter births between 1939 ( before the reg was taken) and 1951 in Buckrose , are you sure they are not also to Gladys? and that the Gladys in Suffolk is the same one as on the birth cert?

Robert

Robert Report 31 Oct 2019 16:51

I only know as I had to buy birth certificates of Elaine baxter 1946
