Well - I think I've found where the Aunt might be, living with one of her Foster Aunts and the widowed FA bother in law. As far as I'm aware, he didn't have any children of his own. It must be the right family! |

I was hoping to find out what happened to a lady during her life before she died in an asylum of breast cancer in 1958 aged 58. Well she was there in 1939 incapacitated, so not really anyway forward except she was in that place which by all accounts was very grim for a long time. |

Argyll Gran, might be worth trying the surname variants, or date of birth in Oxfordshire and see if they come up mistranscribed? |

I know my grandmother was at that Chester address until 1946/7 my grandfather died there, so she would have moved soon after that as the flat was tied to his job, and would have shown in another area if that had then been updated, which she doesn't. So I assume addresses weren't updated? |

Oh well that's quite interesting, I found a marriage for a gt uncle a while back but without buying the cert was only reasonably sure it was him, but the index gives him with the wife, and his birth year matches, only the 2 of them in the household so it does look as though there were no children at least up to '39. |

It could be a case of a mangled transcription. |

In case it helps anyone, don't forget the address search, thought it might be useful if you have addresses from 1911 or marriage certs. it may not tell you where someone is but it might help show where they are NOT . For instance 2 Church st Chiswick where my Fishlocks lived in the 20s, searching the street and looking at number 2 shows a different "household name" |

It doesn't matter when they died it's when they were born that counts. You are not going tofind anyone by searching who was born after 1915 (100 years ) My dad born in 1926 died in 1995 |

This is very weird. I am sure I can see my sister on the register - she was born in 1938, although the register says she was born in 1893! She is under her married name ( she was married in 1959 ) with her original surname in brackets. She is very much alive! |
