The info is from Ancestry BMD.

And also from family members. One of the family is going to get back to me to confirm the father

We think it is either Joseph or Walter Turner whose parents are Thomas and Lucy Turner, my GGgrandparents

Thanks

I think the only way you are going to find out is to buy one of the birth certificates. You say they were both called Turner where did you get this infomation from?

Hi Flick

I found these as well.

I have since been told that Ada died before my granparents, who died in 1984.
Its possible that Ada's death may have been recorded in Cheshire, as we now think she died in the Countess of Cheshire hospital.
A family member is going to get back to me with this info.

Thank you for your help

Hi Jax

After Desmond and Dennis were born, Ada and her husband moved to live in Shotton North Wales. They lived in the same street as my gran.

Ada died in North Wales after 1976.

I think I need a trip to the records office in Hawarden and find out more

Thanks

Hi Jax,

Wrong marriage sorry.

She either married a George, Samuel, Joseph or Walter Turner from West Bromwich. These were my gran's uncles. Going to see if I can find the baptism record for Desmond and Dennis.

Thanks again for your help

Hi Flick

Two Turners did marry, Ada Turner's husband was one of my grandmothers uncles.
Thanks

You can't actually get birth cert info without buying the cert

Unless two Turners married.......the children were illegitimate

Hi Jan

Yes thats the birth for them both.

I dont really want to buy the certificate unless I really have to.
I know that their mother was Ada who was my great aunt.
But the Turner family was not a small family.
I know they moved from West Bromwich to Shotton North Wales and they are both buried in Hawarden Cemetery.

Thanks

You'll need a birth cert for this. I believe MMN is also Turner, would that be right?
