Does anyone have access to the 1939 Register? I know that Margaret Martin
(b. c1889) and William G Martin were living in the Southwark area of London at this time but do not have their full address. I also know that there were 2 other people also living with them at this time and would love to have this information.

I believe that Margaret's middle name was Matilda.

Thank you and fingers crossed.

Maralyn. :-)

Thank you, that is most helpful. Would you be able to check out 4 or 5 other members of my family that lived in the Lambeth area in 1939?

Well, I for one am certainly very happy to look them up for you.

The weather here is just too nasty to go anywhere and I do seem to have developed a severe allergy to anything resembling housework now I am in my 'later years' so any distraction is very welcome ;-) :-D :-D

There are lots on here who are happy to help.............

Phyllis' full name.

These are electoral registers that are being shown so a 14 year old would not have been included on them.

Oh I thought minors (under 21 yrs olds at that time) would have been recorded but not eligible to vote.
