Please can someone help me solve this problem? My mother,who died in the 1970s, is on the 1939 register in Chichester although her family home was in south London and her parents and grandparents are in their house there at the time. If she was an evacuee this was never mentioned by my mother so it was a complete surprise to me. She was about 13 at the time and she had a little brother who was 5. He died in 2007 but I have not found him anywhere in the 1939 register. There are no closed records at the address where his parents were but there are two where my mother was living in Chichester - one above her in the list and one below her in the list. In the hope that the one below her was her little brother, I obtained his death certificate and requested through FindMyPast to have the record opened.
That was about a month ago and I have heard nothing from them nor can I find out how to trace my request and check what date I sent it.
Can anyone suggest what I should be doing next? I am new to internet research so I'm on a steep learning curve!
