Sam Cunningham has a tree on here, with Edith Davis 1924 on, as do several others so worth sending a message. It's not guaranteed that you'll get a reply as trees stay on here whether the tree owner is still a paying member or not, but if they have kept the same email they will receive notification of your message and be able to reply. :-)

Haley, if you click on 'Search' at top of page and then'search all trees' for some of the names you might find some connections, I've just had a quick look and there are several tree owners that have Francis Cunningham born 1924 in their tree.

Several have Apryl, spelled with the Y

Francis remarried in 1966 to Doris R Simons? Does that tie in with what you know? First wife died 1964.

Births of other possible siblings in different areas, so you will need to confirm that they are from same family, for instance Melody 1949 is listed with mmn spelling Davies, whereas Sam is mmn Davis as are some of the other children.

You can see possible births on freebmd.org.uk using the surnames in search.

Welcome to the board Haley, what info are you looking for?

I see she was married 1963, and had middle name Frances.

I assume this is April's birth ? though probably mistranscribed as Apryl

Births Jun 1946 (>99%)
Cunningham Apryl F Davis Ilkeston 7b 908
