  • 1939 Register - Surnames

    Hi

    Just been doing some searches on the free side of the 1939 Register. Is anyone able to confirm that where a womans surname is shown as 'Name (Different name)' , that the Different name is the maiden name off the woman.

    Thanks

      My grandmother comes up with her married name, Taylor, as her name with her maiden name, Phillips, in brackets. She went by Megan not her given name and that came up with her unused name in brackets.

        It'll be another name she was known by, which might be her maiden name or it might be something else.

          My great aunt comes up in her second married name, with her current (1939) married name in brackets.

          Her first husband did not die until 1948, and she remarried in 1951


          The Register was continuously updated into the 1990s ........

          ....... for example, both my brother and uncle are showing on the free search. Both should have been closed as both were born after 1915, but both died around 1991/1992.

            Is there going to be any updating? ie unlocking those born in 1916 and subsequent years.

            Does the National Identity number show on the record?

            We're looking for someone born 1918/9 but don't have a date of birth so can't confirm she's died.

              From the freebie bit, I can see an aunt of mine who didn't marry until 1941, listed as Married Surname(Maiden Surname), Given Name.

                Transcription is quite bad in places. Some of my Goodwins are listed as Grodwin! I managed to find my parents via my brother who, although b.1939, died in 1989, so his record is open.

                  Yes, locked records will be opened when the person concerned would have reached 100 years old, so born 1916 will be opened in 2016 and so on.

                  Incidentally, people who are still alive now and who are over 100 years old can have their record CLOSED if they wish. I wonder how many will take up that offer! (There are more than 48,000 people in the UK over the age of 100)

                      That doesn't work for me. My NI number is nothing like the number given on the 1939 record for my mother.

                        I used to have a 4 letter followed by 2 numbers as my NHS no. - Then it was computerised and I haven't a clue what it is now - as it isn't as easy to remember

                          The NI (National Insurance) number is a different beast and is for paying our taxes etc. - it was the NHS number that came out of the National ID number from 1939: http://www.nhs.uk/NHSEngland/thenhs/...hs-number.aspx

                          The link I posted earlier explains the NHS number: http://www.1911census.org.uk/1939.htm

                            I did read the links you posted Caroline & I am still confused. Just got my medical card out with my NHS number & that too bears no resemblance to the number at the bottom of my mother's 1939 record. I thought that the number after the last / referred to a person's position in the household ie 01 for father, 02 for mother etc etc. My mother's says /42 when there was only me & her in the household. 42 was the number of the house where we lived.

                                That explains the difference in NHS numbers.

                                    Ditto, though mine was 4 letters and 3 numbers. I can still remember it. I'm registered with my GP for online prescription ordering, so my current NHS number is within easy reach if needed.
