If her name is definitely Mona,these look like the only possible marriages:

Marriages Mar 1950
Scott Mona L Murphy Wallasey (probably born 1922)
Marriages Mar 1954
Scott Mona Hunt Epping (probably born 1933)
Scott Mona A Moore Durham W. (probably born 1932)
Marriages Sep 1954
Scott Mona E Clarke E. Dereham (probably born 1930)
Marriages Sep 1959
SCOTT Mona S ROBINSON Newcastle T. (probably born 1940)

If you put Scott and Street into freebmd between the years 1930 and 1935 you will find 2 births in Staines.

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

Both have 3 extra names which helps in following them in subsequent marriages or deaths if they used them.

But the birth is for a Monica,and Rose says she can see no connection to Tonbridge (or presumably Tunbridge).

Have you any information on names of Mona's daughters?

Added:
Some of the children of that Monica's marriage have their names in people's trees on here, 4 daughters and a son, 1955 to1966, in Surrey, so wrong family?

Where abouts do u find this info from patchem please?

There was talk of George travelling so that might make sense if this is him, mum was married at one point to a bloke who was born in early 30s so it's def probable!

The Scott/Street births are in the early 1930's, so unlikely?

Just checking, Mona and her children lived with her brother, and there was no husband around?

Hi rose where did u see this? I'm not sure if her name was anything different as when ever heard of her she was always mona, but maybe!!
I'm still waiting to hear from mums best friend, unfortunately her husband just passed away so she's not in a good place right now.
Who would of guessed looking for someone would be so hard!! Thanks for trying for me, really appreciate it x

There is a Monica and George Scott with MMN Street. Monica had 3 daughters but I see no links to Tonbridge.

mmn means mother's maiden name.

Hi rose someone else commented and said that,maybe could be! There are a lot of Monica's born around the 1940s, so if that's the case think needle in hey stack springs to mind!!
Really thought we had a chance as not many monas,o well keep slogging on n hope we get somewhere.

Possible Mona is short for Monica.

Do your older sisters remember anything like the names of Mona's children?

Try looking at freebmd......

Go through it systematically............

Look for a birth for George H Scott...............and one for Mona Scott with the same MMN

.....and hope that Mona wasn't her second forename.............

As you have the same mother, the 'likeness' is to be expected

so he would have been on the isle of wight as well as his sister Mona?

If he was living with her at the time again the electoral rolls may help .

If he is on your sisters birth cert then he acknowledged paternity .

Its not unusual for siblings with different fathers to still look alike . I am sure lots of families have the same Ours does!!

My mother decided to put half of one mans name & half of another on my birth certificate! It's all rather strange as birthday was celebrated on 23rd for 35 yrs till I got my birth certificate n found out was born on 19th!!i know I don't have his name on my birth certificate but I would like to make contact with him so can possibly fill in missing pieces of the past!
