The only thing I can do is write a letter to the daughter which I’ve just done. Hopefully she will be at that same address. That’s the only way of contact. I’ve no idea how to get a phone number for that address without spending a fortune on 192.com etc. Xx

You need to be careful about posting recent addresses on here.

There is no record on the BT site of a landline for them.

Probably only got mobiles - or they are ex-directory.

It is NEVER a good idea to ring up out of the blue , anyway.


BUT - write a carefully-worded letter enclosing a stamped addressed envelope, and see what happens

Good luck....................

So, she lived with her daughter in Buckingham, not Bedfordshire as you previously stated?

Hi Dea, did I put Bedfordshire? Oh heck, sorry, my head is spinning with all the names etc. I’m not very good at this as you can see. I have a terminal tummy condition with which I’m on hell of a lot of medication incl morphine so sometimes my brain goes into shut down. Really sorry about that. xx

Hi Rose, sorry but what is Linkedln? I’ve heard of it, but never gone into see what it is. Lol. Yep, I’m a pure novice. xx

Erika, yes I’ve written a letter and now popped a return envelope in. Good thinking. I didn’t think of that. All I can do now is wait xx :-)

Update ... my dad just told me that Miriam (Valerie’s mother) had a daughter when she met and married my dads dad Walter Waterlow. So Valerie has a half sibling. Dad thinks her name was Margery...Marjorie... not sure on the spelling. Dad must of kept seeing her as he just said she was evil as she threw all Walters medals away and pictures of the ships etc he was stationed on..... the plot thickens!!!

Perhaps the child is the 'closed' record on the 1939 I posted some time ago

Checked freebmd- it almost certainly is.

Look for Dent/Dent birth in Doncaster

She may be living, so not posting it here. Discretion is needed where people are not known to be deceased.

She may have married a Robinson - again, look at freebmd

Cheers Erika, yes I think it is, you’re right. I haven’t had time today to search anything. Been so busy and wish there were more hours in the day. I’ll have a search tomorrow. You’re a star ?? x

Age for death for Majorie is too early but could Samuel be the dad??
