Look on the census to determine when they could have married, Based on the first child born search marriages from that date back 3 to 5 years for a marriage, The best way to find her maiden name is to buy one of the childrens birth certificates,

Acording to Detective's post ref medals he doesn't appear to have been awarded any medals for Gallantry, (That doesn't meen he wasn't a hero) Just that his efforts were not noted in the right quarters?

The qualification for his medals are below

Authorised in 1918, the 1914/15 Star was awarded to personnel who saw service in France and Flanders from 23 November 1914 to 31 December 1915, and to personnel who saw service in any other operational theatre from 5 August 1914 to 31 December 1915.

The British War Medal 1914-1920, authorised in 1919, was awarded to eligible service personnel and civilians. Qualifications for the award varied slightly according to service. The basic requirement for army personnel and civilians was that they either entered a theatre of war, or rendered approved service overseas between 5 August 1914 and 11 November 1918. Service in Russia in 1919 and 1920 also qualified for the award.

The Victory Medal 1914-1919 was also authorised in 1919 and was awarded to all eligible personnel who served on the establishment of a unit in an operational theatre

Thank you Kath
Did you find James storey marriage to Elizabeth Bumfrey.?
Thanks

KathleenBell Report 15 Jan 2014 00:16

I've looked on Findmypast and FreeBMD and there is no record of a Maude Bumfrey marrying a Storey.

Many of the records from WW1 were destroyed in a fire so James's records may have been amongst them.

Thank you so much
Got a little confused today so visited an elderly relative and he said
My grandad Stephen storey parents are Elizabeth Ann Bumfrey (1881 I think) and James Gulliver Storey (I think 1880, and apparently he won 3 medals in the First World War, which I cannot get info), there children are me grandad Stephen 1906 trimdon), Walter 1909, Jenny 1923, Isabella 1903, James (Jim I think 1914/1920 although I cannot find him).

The confusion comes because iky storey ( brother of James gulliver storey above)
Married Maude bumfrey (sister of Elizabeth bumfrey above)

I think Isabella may have died before 1901 and William married Jane ? who had a son, William born 1889. He is described as stepson in 1901.

Quarter of registration: Jul-Aug-Sep
Mother's maiden name: Bumfrey

The 1911 census that you mention says the parents of Stephen were James and Elizabeth who had been married about 9 years. This looks like their marriage:-

County: Durham
Year of registration: 1901
Quarter of registration: Apr-May-Jun
Spouse's last name: Not available before 1912

Possible birth of the daughter you were looking for:-

County: Durham
Year of registration: 1923
