Hi Thankyou for your reply

It has mentioned that James Leonard Wilson and Gladys Wilson are living at
14 Taunton Road West Bridgeford.Nottingham
Eclectroles 1921 1922 9123 1924
I would love to know if it is the Famiy living there
But I cannot find them

Nor the Probate for Gladys Wilson 1968 Nottingham

As far as I know the information is right

The Marriage for Vera Cooke and James Barry Wilson Father Jame Leonard Wilson
1946 Nottingham
I have the copy
Thankyou for your reply

Gladys Wilson may not have left a Will, or, if she did, it may not have needed to go to Probate.

Electoral Rolls for the period you mention can only be searched by address

Are you sure about your info?

Married 1946, given age 26 1946 - 26 = 1920 in simple Maths
But if Vera was born in October 1919 (page 1 of thread) and married in June 1946 she would still only be 26 having had that birthday in October 1945

--------------------------------------

POSSIBLES only, not certain -

These are the James B Wilson births that would make him 26 at marriage

Hi
As far as I know
Vera Cooke married James Barry Wilson @ Nottingham 1946

So surely they must be on an Electrole if he was still a live ????
My cousin and I think James Barry Taylor might have been in RAF WW2

Anyway I am sending for the marriage certificate later next week
See what turns up
Bye for now and Thankyou

Ralph was born 1924, so he wouldn't appear on an ER until 1945 - or until after the war.


Here he is as a teenager in 1939:

In 1960 he was living in Nottingham, so presumably Vera was at that address too:

Re Electoral Rolls -

as Shirley has explained, there were no ER's during WW2.
IF James Barry was the one born in 1920, he wouldn't be old enough to appear on an ER until 1941, which of course was during WW2.
