Did any of Valeries children have a connection to the Bedfordshire area?

I found this death and although the date of birth is a couple of years out, this is often the case on death certs as it depends on how much the informant knows about the deceased person:


Name: Valerie June Waters
Death Age: 64
Birth Date: 10 Jun 1942
Registration Date: Apr 2006
Registration district: Luton
Inferred County: Bedfordshire

Posting this as the forenames match, although the birth year is wrong

You can cross-refer the day and month with the birth cert

No, forget that one - there is a probable birth to match, on freebmd

So you know Valerie's DOB?

Don't post it on here, as it is an identity theft tool.

It may prove useful to get a copy of the marriage cert you think is hers, to find out the father's name

I find it strange that Mavis's birth was registered under two names if Mary's husband was the father. Not how it usually works

No Mavis was Ernest Jones’s daughter. That’s for certain xx

Yes my dad has Valerie’s birth cert xx

Oh and so to answer you’re question how Keith and Valerie are related, they are half brother and sister. Same dad, different mum xxx

Mavis's birth was registered thus:

Births Sep 1932 (>99%)
Waterlow Mavis B King Doncaster 9c 1216
Jones Mavis B King Doncaster 9c 1216

The inference to be drawn is that Waterlow was the father

You haven't said whether you have any certificates for Valerie

Hi, thanks for all you’re posts.... I shall set the record straight.
My nanna Mary King (maiden name) was married to Ernest Jones. He either died or they divorced. Mary then met Walter, they lived together but never married. Mary had a child to Ernest, Mavis Beryl Jones, she then went on to have two more children to Walter, Keith Waterlow (my dad) then Norma Waterlow. Mary and Walter split up. Walter then married Miriam Dent and Mary married Frank Bowater. Walter and Miriam had a child called Valerie June Waterlow. Miriam died in 1948 and not long after Walter died. Miriam’s sister (who’s name I don’t know) then raised Valerie. I think she owned the Rockingham pub in Doncaster. So that clears Valerie up.
As for my dad Keith, and Norma, they were raised by their mum and Frank. Now this is where all the names change cos Frank Bowater adopted my dad and Norma, so their names became BOWATER!!
The death record for Valerie isn’t her. Different name, different dates and she didn’t come back to Doncaster. I have checked all this. I did find 2 daughters of Valerie’s, Katherine Elizabeth Waters born 1976 and Joanna Claire Waters born 1974. Mothers maiden name Waterlow. Also on the electrol, Katherine Waters who had not married had her own house and the other occupant was Valerie J Waters.
I hope all this makes sense. I’ve come to a complete dead end now. I’ve looked at possible marriages for her daughters and found quite a few names who could of married Joanna. I’ve been on Facebook and messaged them all. No luck yet. There is another marriage for Valerie Waters to a ‘Jones’ but I can’t find anything out. Only that the marriage took place in Peterborough. My family tree on my dads side is a nightmare. Think my nanna married 3 times maybe 4...... I so need some help to find Valerie and/or her children. My dad is 83 and time is of the essence. Thank you all so much for looking for me. I’m touched that you have taken time from you’re lived to do this. If you’re wondering about my name, it was Lisa Bowater, I then married a Jeff Whittles and divorced him after 10 years and had my name changed to Lesa Waterlow. That really pleased my father. I then remarried to a Timothy Riordan, so now I’m Lesa Riordan. Yes I changed my first name spelling too. Anyway, if you can help anymore I’d appreciate it so much xxx

How certain are you, Lisa, about Valerie's second forename? Do you have her birth cert?

I had been wondering what happened to that Mary Jones from the 1939 ErikaH - It looks like she does connect somewhere as the OP's name is Bowater !

Hardly time for Ivy to produce three children, unless there was a multiple birth

There are, however, three Waterlow births in Doncaster with MMN King in the 1930's


And this marriage

her father possibly married in 1925 but his wife died aged 20 in 1928

there were no children

so how is Valerie connected to the posters father?

As Valerie was only 5 when she was orphaned, was she adopted after that?
Perhaps her surname was changed?

Dad didn't remarry

So she was 41 when Valerie was born

Did the dad remarry ??

Is this the correct death?

Lisa said her name was Valerie June.

If Valerie J Waterlow were registered in September qtr 1944 in Doncaster, a birthdate of 23 Apr 1944, would be a late registration.
