Find Ancestors

to all you lovely helpful people, thank you very much for your help in finding the answers which I needed. I am now closing this thread.
Kind regards to all,
Harpist.

In 1945 there's also a Winifred Wright with Zillah and William at that address.

After that, until 1955 (including 1955), just William (or William F ) and Zilllah

Zillah Wright [ with William F ]
in the London, England, Electoral Registers, 1832-1965
Name: Zillah Wright
Year: 1965
County or Borough: Greenwich
Ward or Division/Constituency: Greenwich
Street address: 35 Rowley House [ 35-37 McMillan Street on image ]
Reference Number: LCC/PER/B/3019

They're at 35-37 McMillan Street from 1958.
In 1958 - 1963, there's a Malcolm Wright with them.

I think up until 1951 At that addressI will check it out tomorrow

By the way - the 1939 with her named as Lillian is a mistranscription - If you look at the image you can see exactly why they read it as Lillian BUT, with the benefit of knowing that her what her name was, if you look again you can clearly see that it does in fact say Zillah.

Or maybe Mr. Wright was already married ??

Maryb - you say above that William F Wright was with her at the address I posted in East Molesey - when exactly was she there with him - does whatever record you have found say anything else about him please?

Possibly she did not want to marry again.

She is with William F Wright at that address

That same death for Zillah Wright in 2001 posted above is also listed under the name of Wilson so it 'must' be the same one!!

On Ancestry it has her death in 2001 in Wilson and Wright name.

?? Thomas James Wilson 18/5/1910 died April 1994 in Nuneaton.

Think the year of death has been altered as sure it said 2001 Harlow which is the one I picked up and posted

1939 180,Croft Road (next door but one to Edward Barwick)
Malcom Wilson crossed out and Wright written over it, born 24/10/1935
with Thomas J Wilson and LILIAN Wilson.

Thomas and Lilian (Zillah) aren't on the same page when you view original.

Found them now Lilian Wilson soft hat maker 14/11/1911 crossed out and says Wright in red ink also in red ink it says Deed Poll
Thomas J Wilson 18/5/1910 brickyard worker.
