replying to Margaret and above - I think I will never find a record of her birth, and have no idea what school she attended or indeed much else. And to Rose - yes there are many others. My grandmother may have gone off with my grandfather before he ceased having children with his wife, then! No surprise really. More research to do, I think..... Thanks to everyone trying to help, but I sense little chance of getting a true picture for some time to come...or maybe never.

In another thread you say there was a Joyce and Maud also.

What about Wilfred?

There are several Brewer/Lockyer births up until 1929, so Violet must have met Lanceley in Somerset and then they moved to the London area.

Hello Susan.

Perhaps your mum wasn't registered at birth. I searched for years for my mother's
Birth Certificate. I too had a thread " looking for mothers Birth Certificate " and had a very supportive team of helpers Who did trace my mother and find her death aged 92. I sent for the death certificate which was correct. But i still cannot find her Birth Certificate. I have a Birth Date taken from an Admission form when mother was entered at school, No certificate given, but DOB given by mother's evidence, So perhaps ? if you know which school your mother was registered, you could write to the education committee.

Good luck.

Margaret

Cheers all! Mother's birth date was (I think!) 12th July 1927...but you may know better! Mum married both dates. Dad died in 1958. Gwendoline J and Lanceley C G are both siblings as you have spotted. Phyllis J should have been recorded as Brewer. How do you all get to be so good at this?!! I'd love to know where Violet went in 1901, too! I found her on the 1891 Census but nowt on 1901!!

London Electoral roll

1921 to 1928
Robert Atkins Brewer -- westmoreland road wandsworth
Minnie Sarah Brewer

1929 to 1933
Robert Atkins Brewer -- westmoreland road Wandsworth
Violet Brewer

not checked to see if Minnie died yet.

as Phyllis J Brewer mth Shore 1929 was born wandsworth that could be the address where she was.

perhaps your mother was born on the station and know one knew - birth not recorded !!!

With a statistic like that, you’d think many people might have inadvertently given birth while travelling on the tube.

Yet only three babies have ever been born in the London Underground. The first (a girl) was in 1924, the second (also a girl) on the 19th of December 2008 and the third, the first boy to be born in the Underground, in May 2009.

Just found Joan - she was named Phyllis J. that's why I couldn't find her! Saw George, thanks. It's the children after Shore's death that cause the most confusion, but my Mum's top of the list of oddities (sorry, mum!) :-)
