If the only birth cert you can find for a Marion M Cross isnt the right one then would seem mum wasnt exactly correct in her submittions for certs. Maybe then she didnt like the name May too much so added Marion and then didn't give the right fathers name either :S

1911 for the one who married Barnes........occupation is not as per the 1944 marriage cert - unless, of course 'lecturer' is actually 'butcher'. There seems to be some doubt about the actual record

I believe the marriage cert for May has the father as Albert wheras on the marriage in 1944 its Joseph, OR is it the birth cert for Marion who has the father of Albert ???

A May Cross born 1917 mother Barnes Bolton Lancs

Joseph A Cross married a Barnes 1911 Foleshill
Joseph Richard Cross married a Barnes 1902 Staffordshire

This fits in with May Cross who married a Tomlinson.

You haven't answered Shirley's question about her status at the time of the 1944 marriage...............

Did you ever know any aunts or uncles on your mother's side of the family?

Were there any children from her first marriage?

No wonder we couldn't find it. The only marriage then is to a Marion M Tomlinson.

Please tell us EVERYTHING you know to help us.

WHERE did they marry, please?

Thelma Report 25 May 2011 22:43

Her fathers occupation was a lecturer as far as I am able to make out on the marriage certificate. The witnesses are Emma Bellotti and Owen A Holroyd.

My parents were both 27 when they married on the 1st July 1944, my mother married my father named Robert John Gallagher. Her fathers name on the marriage certificate is Joseph Cross. My mother’s middle name was May. Apologies for duplicating, I am new to the site.

Many Thanks,

Thelma

This is a duplicate of a posting in find my ancestors.
We are finding the same information, and asking the same questions.

Have you tried looking for her father's army record incase she is named there?
Often a date of birth is given if the children are named there.

Do you know her middle name?
If so and you find a suitable registration in the index, you could try phoning the local office where the birth was registered.
I have had free help from staff, when I knew what the details should be and they were able to confirm a middle name ( shown on index as just an initial) when I told them what it should be.
