I would really appreciate if someone could check the 1939 register for Nancy Thomas in Coventry, Warwickshire. Her mother's name was Elizabeth Mary Thomas.

Many Thanks
Dianna

Not seeing an obvious entry. Was Nancy the name on her birth registration please? Could she have married before 1939? Do you have an approximate year of birth for her mother if she was still living in 1939?

Trying to find her before 1939, I don't see her either born or living in Coventry in 1911. (At least, not if she's listed as Nancy.)
Did she have a known father as well as a mother?


Just as a stab in the dark, could this be her in 1911??
