Terence Report 8 Oct 2019 16:17

Hi,researchers.Wondered if anyone could help with a problem I have come up against?
When asked by a friend to find ancestors of Elsie Pattison,(friends GrandMother) she said Elsie had married Edward Lee in 1920,Hartlepool. I found this record.
When looking for Elsie's birth I could only find Elsie Dowson Pattison in Hartlepool.
Her Mothers maiden name given as Worley.When looking at various trees on Ancestry they say she married William R.H.Bearby in 1917,Hartlepool.These trees also show Elsie's Mother to be Eliza Ann Worley who married James Pattison in
1891,Hartlepool.William Bearby and Elsie D Bearby are in the 1939 Register at Belmont Gardens,Hartlepool.So obviously not my friends Grandparents.My question is where is the birth of Elsie who married Edward Lee?Sorry if I have made this sound so complicated. Thanks for any help,Terry L.

Don't rely on Ancestry trees, The best way to be sure is to buy the marriage cert for Elsie's father's name

Marriages Sep 1920 (>99%)

Lee Edward Pattison Hartlepool 10a 403

Pattison Elsie Lee Hartlepool 10a 403

assuming this is the couple in 1939 it gives you a probable date of birth to look for

18 Alfred Street, West Hartlepool C.B., Durham, England

Edward Lee 04 Mar 1893 Male Wagon Repairer (Retired) Married 153 1
Elsie Lee 10 Nov 1899 Female Unpaid Domestic Duties Married 153 2
Elsie Lee 16 Jan 1923 Female Incapacitated Single 153 3

EDIT plus two closed records who will most likely be the other children.

Just realised you have a date of birth in title as 1892, are you certain of this as it looks unlikely from the 1939 reg?

IF it is the 1899 one as per 1939register, then it is more likely to be this one in 1911 census
