Twelve Degnen/Yarwood births on freebmd. Do some following-up

Be pro-active - look in ‘search all member trees’

Who has ‘been in Canada since 1966’?

This looks like the parents

Marriages Mar 1921
Degnen Francis A Yarwood Chorlton 8c 1915
Yarwood Sarah A Degnen Chorlton 8c 1915

So it's very likely they had children before Agnes


Use FreeBMD to look for children using the surname combination

Get the marrige cert for her age and fathers name and work backwards

It's very unlikely that any close family will just say we are connected

A descendant of Agnes Degnen who married Peter Casey in 1956 would like to trace any living relatives in UK. She has been in Canada since 1966. I will pass on any enquiries.
