sorry Flick, just saw your post, yes mum was from coventry, i never thought he may have faked an age as he was 20 yrs older than mum. I believe his first wife is still alive, not 100% tho.

So, if they didn't divorce.............................!

Certainly no sign of a marriage to your mother that I can see.....

That 'first' marriage cert would seem to be absolutely essential..........

something ive never thought about tbh

she wore a wedding ring, and had name lambert.....

I am pleased you are finally making some good progress with your family tree Rowena.
It is never easy, we all have hurdles that stem the progress but it is lovely to know that it is all slowly coming together for you... x

Thankyou,

and i suppose being unmarried with kids wasnt a good thing in them days,

if they was unmarried i suppose thats why they didnt have contact with their families....and moved to a new area. Kinda making sense now x

Why don't you order that first marriage certificate, Rowena? At least you'll get his father's name.
