  • Closed records on 1939 Register

    I hadn't looked at the 1939 register before today, as I knew where my grandparents (and the great grandparents who were still alive at that time) were living.
    So today out of curiosity I looked at my mother's family. Grandparents and Grandmother's mother - as expected. There are six closed records. Mum was one of eight children and the oldest died in 1930, so there should be seven children still at home. Six of those children were under 15 in 1939 , the seventh would have been 17 and as she died in 1942 her record should be open. One of the others was killed during the war (although he is probably listed as missing in action and doesn't have an official death certificate)
    It looks as though one of the children was not at home on that day, but I can't think of a way to check. The most likely one being the oldest surviving child as she could have been in hospital.
    I have tried searches , but all searches on variations of her name are coming up blank.
    Her death is registered in Amounderness, she was in hospital and died as a result of having a faulty heart valve.

    So do I ask if those two records are closed and can they be opened?

    http://www.familytreeforum.com/showt...-1939-register This thread has a lot of questions and answers on the register and all about death certs and about providing proof of death, I suggest you have a look through it, unless you get and answer from a member who can tell you exactly what you need to know.
