She married twice 1st in England Mr Sheridan and then Mr Trice.

Is the Jersey info I posted earlier the correct family then?

Julie

Julie Report 22 May 2015 21:07

Yes it looks correct I think I remember Marguerite her sister. Think her mum was also called Barbara but not 100% sure.

Julie

Julie Report 22 May 2015 21:10

I think there may have been a child born in her 1st marrage

I'm looking for children born to this marriage

BMD comes up with
Births Sep 1951
MAY Alan D Abraham Battersea 7c 60

Is there anyway to find out the mothers 1st name ?

You would need to buy the birth certificate.

You can order them online from the GRO (£9.25) using the volume and page number:

I know how to order a cert thanks. Just wanted to know how to cross ref with another source.

Julie

Julie Report 23 May 2015 17:16

Also the German occupation of Jersey must have been difficult for this Jewish family. Are there records I can look at that will tell me what happened to the family? Barbara had two children from her 1st or 2nd Marriage not sure what happened to them ?
