Hi. Another Smith request please if anyone can help. I am searching for more info on this relative who was born in Islington in 1st quarter 1926. She is the child of Edward Smith b.1890 and Gladys D. Green B. 1893 (they married at the end of 1909). Now I am not sure if she is dead or alive but I do know that she was living in Essex during the 1980's. If she is alive it is likely she lives in Colchester, Frinton etc area. She apparantly married a Mcmasters (not sure of first name) and at the time she lived in Edmonton (possibly at 41 Lansbury Rd). However I cannot trace any marriage or children (either this spelling or MAC) and apparantly he was scottish so I wonder if it could have been there. Also, believe he would be dead by the time she was living in Essex in the 1980's as she was then living with her brother Donald and sister Cathy (Kathleen)

Any thoughts anyone?

Cheers
Keeley

Hmm, looks about the right date and area I guess. Mum was convinced it was McMasters. Something to think about and investigate more on. Thanks.

I can't find a death rego for a Lydia J Mcmasters or a Lydia J mccarthy, unless she married again,is there anyone you can ask re the last name to be sure.

Sorry had to pop out to ask. Apparantly it is definitely McMaster (no "s"). He would have died before 1984 in London or Essex. They did not have any children and she was definitely not re-married. It's a mystery!
