The woman is probably not alive, so her privacy isn't being compromised

The question about the birthplace referred to your friend.....NOT her mother

Hi Jax - thank you for giving me the inf on Ceclia Ann Griffiths marrying Horace H Smith. can I ask if you got this inf from this website? also, do you know whether this Ceclia died in Australia or the UK?

I suppose this could be a one off spelling mistake - I'll have to check other birth records to see if they are the same.

Cheers Cissy

Hi Glitter Baby - I don't think I should publish what the official document, giving the name Cecilia Ann Griffiths, is since I believe anyone could access this inf by just typing in the name. I don't think it's relevant to my search since it only give Cecilias name and address in 1944.
However I'd be happy to send details of the document to your private message box.
Cheers, Cissy

Where was your friend born? There are no births that fit for Gloucester City district.

Probally the 1939 and 1945/6 books showed the same people at that address so it was concluded they lived there during the war years.?

Edit: Snap Glitter!

There were no electoral rolls during wartime so what years were the Steele's living there?

I thought electoral registers were not done during WW2


What document do you have dated 1943/4

There is a tree on ancestry with someone with the same name (although a letter wrong) marrying in 1950 and emigrating to Australia

The birth is a year out and in Liverpool.... But I cannot see one that matches

Marriage
Name: Ceclia A Griffiths
Spouse Surname: Smith
Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1950

If it is her she sadly died in 2007 but had quite a few children

Would a birth registered in 1925 of Cecilia A Griffiths fit ?

Please can someone help. I'm helping an old non-computer literate friend find her birth family. I have an official document showing this spelling for Cecilia Ann Griffiths and showing her living at 48 Rydens Street, Gloucester in 1943/44. I have checked the Electoral Regs for this address where a couple called Steele lived. I have looked to see if THEY had any children - no luck here.
I've had no luck finding any Cecilia Ann's, apart from one born in Reigate, Surrey but cannot get any further with this.
at an educated guess I'd say Cecilia was born between 1900-1929
I'd appreciate any ideas - or does anyone know of a Cecilia Ann Griffiths?
Many thanks
Cissy
