Somebody has it muddled. This Violet married a James Hill.

Marriages Mar 1926
Griffiths Doreen Lawrence Bridgend 11a 1071
Hill James Webb Bridgend 11a 1071
Lawrence Albert J Griffiths Bridgend 11a 1071
Webb Violet M Hill Bridgend 11a 1071


Looks like they may have had these children.

Births Dec 1926
Hill Edith E Webb Bridgend 11a 1387
Births Dec 1929
Hill Violet M Webb Bridgend 11a 1217


There are many possible marriages for Violet Webb born c1899 in Glamorgan.

so would this be a safe bet that l got this wrong. And that in actual fact violet webb was married to a jameshill not an albert johnhill.

And for violet webb her middle name is mary.

So James Hill seems a good bet?

There are 4 other Violet M Webb marriages in Glamorgan on Freebmd from 1917 - 1933.

Though are you particularly looking in Bridgend registration district?

Roxanne Report 9 Sep 2010 22:46

oh dear, how do l work out which one?

Ozibird

Ozibird Report 9 Sep 2010 22:52

Well how did you get to Violet in the first place? Through children? If so, you must know her married name. If it is Hill the only Webb/Hill marriage is the one registered at Bridport.

By the way the info we're getting is freely available on freebmd.org.uk

Well in that case it must be james then,because her mums name was webb.
Ive been looking but im confused, ive done a lot of work thinking it was albert so trying to sort it all out

Roxanne Report 9 Sep 2010 23:23

Ive found James now as a marriage but l cant find him on the birth.

Whose mum's name was Webb? If you have that person's birth certificate it will tell you who both her parents were. If you do not have it, then we are shooting in the dark. Her parents may have married in a different part of the country.

You need the birth certificate.
