Albert is single on the census, so maybe Mabel Snr's husband is missing

Thank you both. I have searched the internet for the register of her birth, but it contains no information on her parents. I will have to order her birth certificate if indeed that will be any different.

Andy, this is the one - I have a letter saying her father is called George but of course Albert could indeed go by any other name.

Hi there, I am looking for help relating to my branch of the Wright family.

I am having great difficulty getting past the small amount of information I have already gathered. My Grandfathers cousin seems to be the stumbling block with me being unable to find any information past the register of her birth. I think more information on her would unearth a lot of information of further family.

Name: Mabel Emma Wright
District: Canterbury, Kent
Page: 1012
Volume: 2A
Registered: January - March 1908

Birthday: February 15th 1908

Death: February 2009 (I don't have a record of this but I believe this is the date of the funeral I attended?)

Family assumptions are that she is the daughter of George Wright - a publican or innkeeper working around Kent with the family perhaps running The Swan Inn, The Tabard Inn, The Balaclava to name a few. Her mother is said to be burried in Wadhurst, name unknown. George is said to have the siblings Arthur, Frank, and Alfred – with not much known other than I believe Arthur James Wright married a lady called Marguerite May Wright (born Horgan) who in turn is my Great-Grandmother.

My grandfather is Norman Frederick Wright (Married. Beryl Major)

b. 19 June 1916
d. 1987
married: 14th january

Father: Arthur Wright
Mother: Marguerite May Wright (Horgan)

Registered address at birth:

Tabard House
Bath Rd
Chiswick

I would be delighted to hear any information leading to the discovery of my family history.

Best,
Thomas
