Hello,
I'm looking for relatives/family of Norah Mary Maton/Robson/Carvell. Lived in Redditch after moving from Brighton. Was Married to William Maton then Thomas Robson then Reginald Carvell. Sadly passed away in 1992. Any info much appreciated.

What ‘relatives’ are you hoping to find?

Have you done any research? Look at freebmd to see if she had children

Who registered her death?

Is this her first marriage

No births showing England/Wales with surname Robson mmn Foulkes - again you can check this out on freebmd

EDIT - but 1 possibility in Bromsgrove RD with mmn listed as Maton

2nd marriage Bromsgrove RD

Wondering why the first child isn't with his Mother in 1939, even as a closed record.

Although the transcript shows what is on the original, I think it would be very much a coincidence if this wasn't the same child

Surname First name(s) Mother District Vol Page
Births Sep 1937 (>99%)
Maton Roy A Foulkes Hampstead 1a 843

Surname First name(s) Age District Vol Page
Deaths Dec 1937 (>99%)
Maton Ray A 0 Hampstead 1a 721

there are no ray a maton's born so that must be roy that died

Was the 2nd child adopted? Her first husband died 14/2/42 so he wasn't the father.

Edit: The second child was adopted.

Hello All,
My dad Raymond was born in 1944 his mom Norah Mary Maton had him adopted to a family in Rowley Regis. His mom Norah tried to contact him in the late 70's when she lived in Redditch. They did meet but since lost touch. I know now Norah passed away in 1992 but was married twice after he had bee adopted. I know he had a sister as i've seen a photo some time back but no name. I have a name i think to her but need to know if this is correct as it would be nice to contact her if she's still alive.

Look for info on freebmd

Trevor,

I have sent you a PM with the name.

Norah's 3rd husband died in 2013:

Thank You Rose.
I'm looking to try and contact Linda Robson which is my dads half sister, but unsure if theres a way to do this through Genes...

I don't see her on any trees on this site.

You should add Norah and your dad to your tree on here in case a relative comes across the names.

There's a chance she was a informant on Norah's death certificate, but it was probably Reginald.

Not seeing a marriage for Linda in the Redditch area.

Rose
