To whom are you addressing that question?

Do you know if Harold was awardred the BEM medal in 1944 /45

Hello, still not found the marriage for Harold Rowe and Nancy Cowley wonder if they could have been married earlier, I have upped my reg with Genes so maybe I will be able to find something now, before 1939.
Thanks to everyone.

Sorry I seem to have made a mistake on this message board by pressing REQUEST REVIEW BY MISTAKE, I 'm not an expert with the computer, sorry for any trouble this may have caused you.
Regards Ann,

whoops it double posted

No Nancy Cowley birth so seems Nancy could have been a nickname
Ancestry only has deaths to 2005 so unable to look to see her on the regs

I didnt post that birth cos he probably still alive!!

No marriages Rowe/Cowley so wonder if she was married before

Could this be Neville's birth:


England & Wales, Birth Index: 1916-2005
about Neville W Rowe
Name: Neville W Rowe
Mother's Maiden Surname: Cowley ****
Date of Registration: Oct Nov Dec 1943
Registration district: Southport
Registration county: Lancashire

still no Harold Rowe/Cowley marriage

Nancy's maiden name was Cowley.

Just found Nancy's maiden name,Cowley born in London then moved to Leeds, before moving to live in Southport where she died.
Getting quite close now Thanks Ann

Thanks for all your hard work, sorry it does not appear to be right, the Nancy Rowe in my tree died we think in Oct/Nov 2006, she had two sons Neville and Graham.born 1942,1945.

Well - another one ruled out then - I will post it anyway, just so that others do
waste time following it! :

This was the only death I could find for a possible Nancy Rowe in an area which fitted:

Age at death (estimated): 88

I looked for her birth and found these 'possibles':
...............

GREGORY Margaret Nancy Leigh 8c 283

Lo and behold - Margaret Burns seemed to fit and I found her marriage to Rowe in 1930:

Unfortunately this is not the one either - Joseph R !!!
