i am john emblow's son. from what i understand, margaret died in the 40s, perhaps giving birth to a 4th child (unknown name). From there the children went into orphanages.

Welcome to the boards.

Unfortunately you have added to a very old thread. Zoe is no longer a member of Genes.

Hi EMBLOW, welcome to the boards.

Unfortunately you have added to a very old thread and Zoe is no longer a member of Genes so there is no way to contact her and she will not be looking on here for replies.

Frank and Margaret don't appear to have married, at least not in England, Wales, or Scotland .

There is no death of a Margaret Emblow in Doncaster (or anywhere else in England/Wales/Scotland) in a feasible timeframe.
Also no death of a Margaret Lee in Doncaster.

There is no record whatsoever of a Frank or Francis Emblow in England, Scotland or Wales - no birth, marriage, or death - and not on the 1939 Register.

There is a Margaret Emblow at various addresses in Doncaster in 1945-8 - but no other Emblows listed with her.
