Hi everyone,
welldone to you all you are doing a fantastic job.
Phyllis

Wilson 1953 AMJ Janet M mmn Lavender - Surrey N W

Could we have two Wilson/Lavender marriages or did they move. It certainly looks like Dad only came home every 3 years (lol).

Update:
Marriage
1953 AMJ Edith Lavender - Eric C Willson (note ll) - Thanet. Could birth be a typo?

We have a Taylor/Wainwright 1970+ birth look up if you fancy a real challenge, Wilson has nothing on them!! lol

No longer required (wrong family) link not proved.

You got there before me!

Off to rest my eyes and get dressed now.

Its at times like this that I thank my ancestors for having unusual names. Nothing as common as Wilson in my lot!

and another

Wilson 1947 AMJ John G mmn Lavender - Gateshead

Wilson 1950 AMJ Norman mmn Lavender - Gateshead

At last I can contribute.

Lilian Wilson mmn Lavender b 3/4 1944
Gateshead 10a 1288

I'll see if I can spot any siblings.

You've done it again - thanks very much. We were only talking yesterday evening about Norman P (born Q1 1911 NuT) and weighing up the risks of ‘is this a connection or not’

We do know there was a Norman but as no mmn's until later in 1911 it was going to be a gamble.

Can I ask you, if you have time, to look for offspring from this marriage?

Thanks again
Rachel

Rachel and friends,

What stars!

I'm so glad you've found another marriage for William - it's a good note to finish the week on. Thank you.

Other certificates on order - so please do keep watching this thread.

Thanks to everyone who have contributed - there are so many of you - Thanks

It is just amazing how this tree has grown and how much of a family there is.

I've just had a look at Patricia Armstrong tree here on GR - it's wonderful! Just want to say a big Thank You to all who have all put in so much time and effort on this.

Hi Looby,
Many thanks for your kind offer. The family tree is gaining in size at a rate that I can hardly believe.
Rachel, Julie, Jenny and others have all incurred costs and my request to cover these costs (or at least some of them) has consistently and politely been turned down.
There has been a lot of work, lookups and certificates purchased so I too sincerely thank all those who have put their hands into their pockets without any return.
If I have missed out anyone then I apologize.
Many thanks to you all.
Paul
