But then he has a middle name of Haydn not Henry?

Although this could be a possibility if Probate for Shropshire came under Cardiff?

THOMAS WILLIAM HAYDN 13 October 1999 252986 06 September 1998 Grant and will Cardiff

This is possibly the 1939 register for for the William that died in 1998- still listed as single in 1939, so not sure if he'd be correct:

Thoms Household (4 People) 728 Neath Road , Swansea C.B., Glamorganshire, Wales

William Thomas 01 Mar 1916 Male Motor Mechanic Single 7 2
Sarah J Thoms 14 Jun 1896 Female Unpaid Domestic Duties Widowed
Ivy Discombe (Thomas) 12 Jan 1918 Female Factory Worker Packing Department N O R Single
Elsie Rees (Thomas) 15 Feb 1919 Female Unpaid Domestic Duties Single.

I don't think it's going to be an easy task- do you know anything more about William or Betty?

I don't see them. Any idea on ages for Bill (William) and Betty (Elizabeth), or who they are related to.

Do you think their children were born around Whitchurch?

Have you searched the 1939 register for the couple?

Nicki

Hi

Need some help please.

Can someone with access to Ancestry look to see if there is a listing for

THOMAS at 3 Hollinwood, Whixall, Whitchurch Shropshire.

I am trying to find information on a Bill & Betty Thomas. The lived at that address in the mid 70s.

They had sons Gerald & Geoffrey in the early 40s, but i cant find anything relating to these at all. Details very vague - think Geoffrey was born around 1942.

I don't know Betty's maiden name so drawing huge blanks

Kind regards

Nicki
