Thanks. One of those closed records will be her child but the other must be related to the Head family.

CLOUGH, BERTHA FREEMAN -
GRO Reference: 1918 D Quarter in DEWSBURY Volume 09B Page 727


EDIT:

Oh bother!

Marriages Sep 1938 (>99%)
Clough Bertha F Greenwood Dewsbury 9b 1553
Greenwood Samuel Clough Dewsbury 9b 1553

And they're together in Batley in 1939.

The image of the 1939 register says " Yew Tree Cottage, Michelmersh".

Doreen's entry is still closed on Ancestry - only Maurice and Eva are visible.

Trying to get a 'handle' on the woman.................This doesn't suggest that she was related to the Heads

Marriages Jun 1936 (>99%)
Head Maurice L Stocker Romsey 2c 271
Stocker Eva D Head Romsey 2c 271

One thing - it seems that their first child wasn't born till 1940, so the closed records on 1939 are likely to be Riddles, although I can't see any evidence to support the idea at the moment

Not stated on records.

Earlier pages refer to Upper Timsbury

The associated map is of Michelmersh and shows the location as being on a side road off the A3057

Looked further for her but no birth or marriage

But this one comes up

Marriages Sep 1947

Maybe she didn’t like the name Bertha?
