I know, nothing does. I've tried a couple of other names on the page, no luck either. Just not transcribed I suppose!

Researching:
Myatt, Hanks, Eccleston, Powell, Clungunford, Birmingham

I see it on Ancestry too Jan.

How very odd!!

Even just entering the year, page and vol numbers doesn't bring it up on FreeBMD.

I'm not seeing a Pilfold/Alcott birth registered in 1964?

Edit: Ah, just noticed you edited Jan so I now see the 1956 birth.

Joyce is on Free electoral roll:

http://www.searchelectoralroll.co.uk/Electoral_Roll_Search.asp

The above shows address (not phone number),and no indication of year. If you want to double-check on 192.com, you can see she is in Dartford up till this year:

There is a daughter born 1964.
And 1956! Surname mis-transcribed as Allcott, unsurprisingly.

Hi Jennifer

I think you will find the surname of the person Joyce married was actually Pilfold and not Pilford.

I will PM you Ancestry's version of the marriage that took place in 1951.

If you check out Pilfold/Alcott births on FreeBMD after 1951........you will see there were possibly 3 sons born to the marriage.

Looking for an address for my cousin Joyce. She was born in 1931 and I believe she lives in Dartford in Kent. Her maiden name was Alcott. Found her marriage in 1951 and think she had 3 daughters. Did try the electrol roll with no success.
