1939 doesn't give household relationships

there is a closed record in the household as well that could be a child of the younger Alice

Clark Norman K Smith Leeds N. 9b 7[14]4A (Alice A)


I can't seem to get the spouse' name up on freebmd but the search I did was for Alice A Smith

Here's a possible birth is she was born in W Yorks?

Thought you might like the DOB for Alice' sister she married 'Firth' in the 1920s (you can find it on freebmd)

She remarried to a Bernard Wooler in 1961 a few weeks after his wife Jessie died.

You must have read my mind Gins...I woke up early today to get a head start with Irene and Audrey..Got all details for Irene but stumped with Irenes marriage to ernest Clarke...Not looking good.I don't think any of these ladies had children

Gee Report 28 Apr 2016 07:44

Have another look at the posts above, Joonie posted the marriage for Alice Audrey to ERNEST CLARK

Irene married a 'FIRTH' in the 1920s and later married WOOLER in the 1960s

There are children for the sisters, look on free bmd

Doh what am I like... yes sorry I did read all the posts, :-)
Thanks Gins :-)
I just wish they hadn't used their middle names as first names on the 1911 census...So confusing Thanks Joonie, for sorting that one out :-)
