Buy the death cert to find out who registered the death...........

He may not have re-married, so any children could have been registered under their mother's name............

Was your father's other family before or after his marriage in 1955 to your mother?

This is going to sound daft, but did your parents remarry in 1973 in Coventry?

Have pmed details of original and 'remarriage'.

FAIRTHORN Report 9 Nov 2010 13:48

there is possible 3 half siblings prior to 1958

I will send them under your inbox under messages

EDIT

ADDRESS & TELEPHONE NUMBER SENT

Pauline Report 9 Nov 2010 13:56

It was at the same time i have been told he was married to them both at the same time.thats why they remarried in 73.i know its confusing

Kucinta

Kucinta Report 9 Nov 2010 14:02

My only concern is that if your parents were together when your dad passed on, then there may be no point in getting the death cert, as your Mum would probably be the informant and it would tell you nothing about the other family.

So you might want to save your money.


EDIT: sounds as if Fairthorn has got it sorted for you already.

FAIRTHORN

Pauline you would really need to buy the marriage certificate to get their ages and their father's names and occupations.

Kucinta

Kucinta Report 12 Nov 2010 09:21

this is a possible birth for Margaret, but you REALLY do need to get that marriage cert to confirm, by finding out the name and occupation of her father. Two other Margaret Rutherfords were born in Easington area post 1890. So there needs to be some confirmation as to whether Margaret Ellen is a contender or not.

Birth: Rutherford Margaret Ellen Easington 10a 450 JAS 1897

Kucinta

Kucinta Report 12 Nov 2010 09:25

Margaret Ellen in 1911 census with her family. Her father is named Cuthbert, so may well be right, but you need marriage cert to confirm.

Census 1911:

RUTHERFORD, Cuthbert Head Married M 40 1871 Coal Miner Hewer Byers Green County Durham .
RUTHERFORD, Margaret Ann Wife Married 8 years F 42 1869 Coxhoe County Durham .
RUTHERFORD, Martha Sister Single F 17 1894 Wheatley Hill County Durham .
>>>RUTHERFORD, Margaret Ellen Sister Single F 13 1898 Wheatley Hill County Durham .
RUTHERFORD, Cuthbert Sister M 11 1900 School Wheatley Hill County Durham .
