      Is Mitchel the married or maiden name?

      A death around 20 years ago - ca 1988 - should be on the later BMD registers, so we could match a death with quite a specific DoB.

      Christine
      Researching: BENNETT (Leics/Birmingham-ish) - incl. Leonard BENNETT in Detroit & Florida ; WARR/WOR, STRATFORD & GARDNER/GARNAR (Oxon); CHRISTMAS, RUSSELL, PAFOOT/PAFFORD (Hants); BIGWOOD, HAYLER/HAILOR (Sussex); LANCASTER (Beds, Berks, Wilts) - plus - COCKS (Spitalfields, Liverpool, Plymouth); RUSE/ROWSE, TREMEER, WADLIN(G)/WADLETON (Devonport, E Cornwall); GOULD (S Devon); CHAPMAN, HALL/HOLE, HORN (N Devon); BARRON, SCANTLEBURY (Mevagissey)...

        Can't find any other births and none for Mitchel.

        Christine has beaten me to it, but I was about to ask for her married name.

                Hi Lyn

                Had a feeling it would be, any advice and where one looks i am a novice at this and i get completely lost think that is why i put my tree on hold ... any advise most welcome. My friend just rang and given me some other info. lets start at the very beginning lol


                Maiden name .... Elizabeth Mitchel
                First marriage to a man with a surname of Tetley so she became Elizabeth Tetley ... she became a widow.
                She then married Kenneth Arthur Bell .... my friend got this extra info from her husbands birth certificate.

                Not sure about you being muddled lol i have now completely lost the plot lol.

                  Hi Patricia, the only place that I can look is Ancestry...and I have just checked 1964 to 1967 inclusive, with no joy.

                  Have to go out for a while, but will try some more years when I get back.

                  Elizabeth wasn't married previously, was she?

                    Hi Lyn

                    on reading your message thought where is lyn going at this time of night ... then saw where you live ... tis me that is up late just do not feel tired.

                    Yes as i said in earlier message she had been married before to someone who's surname was Tetley he died leaving her a widow... surname at time of marriage to kenneth Arthur Bell was Tetley ... and it is this marriage i am needing certificat number for so ... ie marriage details between ... Elizabeth Tetley and Kenneth Arthur Bell.

                    you are doing an absolutely brilliant job for me ... would love to be able to give my friend the marriage registration number when i see her this afternoon.

                    Who knows after this might just get cracking on tree stopped cos i came to what looked like an unsurmountable brick wall ... due to my not knowing what i was doing ... other words thick.

                    Thanks again

                      Hi Patricia - hope you don't mind me butting in.

                      I've trawled the BMDs for Kenneth Bell from 1954 to 1968 inclusive and can't find any marriages to either Mitchel, Mitchell or Tetley.

                      Perhaps we need to try to find a marriage to Mr Tetley first.

                            I think I've found the first marriage but I'm beginning to wonder if the husband died and that's why we can't find a second marriage. Because of that I'll PM you the details. Hope I'm not jumping to conclusions about your friends family.

                                  hi lyn

                                  Angie told me that Elizabeth was married to Harry Tetley for approx ten years and she met and married kenneth bell within a short space of time of Harry dying so on that info think she married kenneth sometime in 1966/67/68.

                                  thanks
