Find Living Relatives

thanks brigid, that reminded me to actually do that deleting :-)
(and yes, when people copy and paste and such, the gaps and unnecessary text and line breaks can all be edited out)

glad to have helped a bit more with Joanne's search with some stuff I sent by PM to Grainne who has been doing all the work now


Joanne, you said 'I would know how their surname was spelt I was with them for 18 yrs and took on the name at 11'

which is really a little snarky for somene asking for ... and getting ... help here

the fact is that the name on the marriage record in the index is spelt LAURENCE

error it may be, but that's how it is and that is the only way it can be found

I have found Shirley and Pm'd Joanne the link to 192.

just a quick appreciation of Joonie cloonie ;your edit's when contradictory facts were found are extremely helpful + make threads more readable ;do yo know if its poss to edit out all the gaps so less scrolling down is involved
ps Not my family just interested in the story

Derek Susan and Cliff are all on facebook

It should be quite easy for Joanne to contact one of them now and ask about Shirley.

Regards

1938
marriage George E Jarvis Florence M Fowler Witney

I do appreciate u looking for me thank you

I would know how their surname was spelt I was with them for 18 yrs and took on the name at 11
I do not have any contact with my foster brothers so no he is no help
have very little contact with my foster mum (long story)

yes the children where slightly younger than me and I was born in 1974
I would just like to know what happened to them and maybe find them again

[editing out incorrect couple]

about that

'my could be Ireland as that was my mums step dad I think '


'my' .. what? ... could be Ireland (and yes is that a place or a name)

'that' was your mum's step dad ... what was he? or ... your step dad's what ... was what?

do you mean your foster mum's step dad?


(if you read over your posts you can see what may not make sense and use the 'edit' link to fix them, or just add more information to make it clear ... that one just made no sense at all)

btw is Jackie Jacqueline ?

Rose,
I thought there was a surname 'Ireland' in the mix, as i was just about to ask this:

What does this sentence mean, please?

'my could be Ireland as that was my mums step dad I think '

Joanne,

We need a little more help with places and dates, as we are struggling to find the family.
I have looked for marriages of Shirley A Jarvis, and births of Jackie or Jonathan (in a variety of spellings) with mother's maiden name Jarvis, but there are rather a lot of possibles when the dates are vague and no place for these children is known,

Were the cousins quite a lot younger than you?.

The Bridgwater one also appears to marry there.

Perhaps there is an Irish connection as the poster suggested?

Rose

ooo no, that far down a wrong trail? what set me off ?? I'll delete it all as being about somebody else's family after a bit then.

double back to your post that Valerie has a son, that is certainly the best trail to follow I would think


edit - I agree with below and was going to ask, myself

I could not make head nor tails of the post about 'Ireland'.

Joonie,

The Kent Valerie R looks to have married a Watkins though.

Rose

[edited to delete info about the wrong couple]

Just a thought ,the 2nd post by Joanne says mum's eldest sister -any idea of the names of other siblings to help find Shirley?

Looks like Valerie had a son. Is he unable to help?

Rose

Rose's mother's surname is very unusual ... there is no marriage to a Jarvis to account for the mother's surname on Rose's birth record


edit - no, that was the wrong Rose - have deleted all info in the thread about the Jarvis-Speck couple
