  • Need help finding Grandmother

    I am having problems finding my husbands grandmother. I've found a record of her birth. NAME (mothers maiden name "NAME") born q.3 1916 in Selby, Yorkshire. She married Donald Latimer in 1937 in Selby. He seems to have then remarried in 1946. I then can't find any trace of her. Can anyone suggest where else I can search. Thank for your help.

    Sorry to edit your post - please see mine at No 4. - Christine

        pippacat... are these people dead? If not, as explained in the FTF Ts&Cs, the names shouldn't be on view in open forum.

        I might edit them out anyway, just in case! People can always contact you by Personal Message (PM). I can't see a death reg for Nellie E LATIMER.

        There's a Donald LATIMER who died in York 1973q4, DoB 21 Jun 1912, so I'll leave him.

          Seems unlikely - the birth was registered 1916 Q3.

            There's a death for a similar name in Bournemouth with DoB 3 Apr 1915 - so, again, not a good match. There's a 1998 death for for a Leonard J SIMMONDS in E Dorset, with a 1911 DoB.

                  Sorry - I didn't mean to be dismissive - it's an important attribute of this site that people do spend time helping one another. As you say, it's always worth having a look and giving something a try. People weren't always very exact about ages - though my experience suggests that they tend to keep to the same day/month even if they juggle with the YoB.
