Doesn't appear that there are any other children to that marriage apart from Rudolph.

possible second marriage for Lydia in 1942 to Cook

Always suspicious when there's a big gap between the first child and the marriage.

Rudolph was also registered under the name Davison, which would imply his dad wasn't William.

Looks like his sister was born before the marriage.

He was on the electoral roll until 2004 and then moved.

Many thanks RamblingRose and Rose ...

You have come up with my cousins marriage details Sunderland ,Lydia Finley , i have only just stumbled across the name of Rudolph yesterday and was elated to find a child of Lydia's ... Her mother was my grt aunt ' sister of my grandad ....
There's also a marriage mentioned for a Rudolph D M Davison - i will look for that , as well as the birth details and send off for the GRO certificates . see whats what ..
Do you think he may still be on the electoral roll - or maybe passed ...

The second marriage to a Cook may be useful , so am searching for all details needed ...

Its a very long time since i last posted a message , and being truthful didn't think i would hear anything from my posting re Rudolph .. Results straight away incredible ... Thanking you so much a big help to me now , health probs wont let me sit for long spinal and housebound, so results like this are extra specials and im so happy ... :-D Joyce :-D

Hi Joyce,

Have you looked at Search and then Search All Member Trees on here? Beverley has Rudolph in her tree. I suspect she is his daughter in law.

He isn't on the current ER - but that doesn't mean that he has died.

People can opt out of the public ER..............

This MAY be the person who was at the same address in 2002 and 2003

Death
Name: DAVISON, Elizabeth
Registration district: Sunderland
County: Durham
Year of registration: 2003
Month of registration: December
Date of Birth:4 February 1938

Just put in Rudolph Davison ...nothing else

Beverleys membership number is about 3 or 4 years old so she may still have an active email address

Thank you jax , did as you suggested and Bingo found Beverley !!

Have sent a message , just hope Beverley is still active on Genes R ....

It would be such a shame to miss a family connection .... May i say a huge thank you to everyone who has been kind enough to send me replies ...

Will post a message eventually with any updates , keep fingers crossed for a good result please .... :-) Joyce :-)

Beverley is on 192.com with David who looks to be Rudolph's son. You could always write to her if emailing doesn't work.

Many thanks Rose . I will have a look for her on 192 .... If there's no reply i shall certainly send Beverley a letter ....
Its most certainly relations ' i have so much info she could use for her F/T on the female side (Finley - Lydia ) and lots of Ancestors etc ....

Would be so nice if she did reply to my G/R message .... Hoping for a positive result .... Joyce :-D

Hi Rose ,
Found a B Davison in Sunderland , foned up but it was a Brian Davison ... We chatted briefly i left details just in case .... He didn't know any of the names or background of the people i mentioned .
Have searched for a Beverley with a David on 192 but am totally unable to find an address .... Its necessary to subscibe to find out more info but its a lot of money for 1 person , at 74 on a ordinary pension its out of the question ..... Not heard anything from my message I sent on G/R , so will hold my breath and be patient .........Many thanks for yr previous help ............ :-(
