I have ancestors from the IOM, and think the name is far more likely to be KERRUISH - a very, VERY common name on IOM! Good luck Olde Crone

Is there a marriage record for irene m corran and william a diccox?

That's cos it's a marriage records, not a birth record. You have to buy the certs to find out how old they were and work back. Have a look on FreeBMD to see if you can see their names.

Is there any chance you could find the parents of IRENE M CARRON born in derby in 1916? then if you can give me her parents i can get in contact with my grandmother again and she could possibly confirm it for me, thanks

Here's the parents of that Irene... Fitzgerald Elizabeth Curran Bedwelty.11a 209 Marriage Dec 1916 Curran William H Fitzgerald Bedwelty.11a 209 Marriage Dec 1916 and another daughter... Curran Florence E Fitzgerald Bedwelty.11a 188 Birth Jun 1918 This all suggests the possibility that the Bedwelty lot aren't yours. I guess we'll never know until you find the marriage.

On her daughters birth certificate it says IRENE MARY CORRAN but there is a possibility it was spelt wrong!

Karl

Karl Report 14 Oct 2005 22:24

maybe she married william albert diccox who was born in swindon wiltshire in 1910! I thought she was born in wales but nowhere near sure, she had her 2 daughters in wales in 1942 and 1943 but that doesnt prove anything lol

Perhaps the spelling is different? Curran Irene M Fitzgerald Bedwellty.11a 209 Birth Dec 1920 Didn't you think she was from Wales originally?

Got more information on this, been told earlier by my grandmother she thinks she was born in 1919, on FREE BMD, there's a IRENE GERTRUDE CORRAN born 1902. on FAMILY RELTIVES there's a IRENE M CORRAN born 1916 ind derby, i cannot find anyone else by this name anywhere so i am presuming the 1916 finding is the correct one
