Find Living Relatives

True - not sure if it's possible to access UK passport applications, certainly not this recent. Would the poster consider purchasing a copy of one of the CA marriage licences? I think that the contracted out source is VitalCheck.

Thank you very much for all your help,you have given ma a lot to think about.

The outbound passenger lists her as isobel Morrison, English, snack bar assistant, address 2 Old Road Causeway Warrington

I would have thought that, in the probable circumstances - i.e. abandoning a husband and child - it would have been entirely feasible that she would travel under her maiden name.

Looks like a good find by D E T

That is the same as I was coming up with - and there is only one Nora I Morrison's born England/Wales in 1926-28

ADDED - maybe got a passport using her maiden name/original birth certificate - not sure it would be checked out to see if she was married

In view of the previous threads - the details on the above post are probably irrelevant. As she was definitely a Finney, she is likely to have travelled under that name, not her maiden one.

As the first marriage wasn't until AFTER the end of WW2, one would have to question the validity of the info about her marrying a GI.

..and you weren't born until 1950......................

If she married in England/Wales, the record will be on freebmd

Did Frederick die?

Do not think I will ever find my birth mother.Having searched for years I have just been told that she married a G.I.and moved to Oklahoma but I do not know what name she travelled under.Her date of birth was 11/9/1927 in Chorlton and her first husband was Frederick Finney.I know about her ancesters but have now hit a brick wall.
