It looks like the records you have for Mabel is wrong? to find out her father purchase the marriage cert, but you said she had two brothers called Raymond and Herbert which matches the details I gave you

joanne

joanne Report 12 May 2012 05:34

Are you certain about when she died? did they have 9 children born between 1938 and 1953 all born Warrington? seems strange to die in Rochdale?

joanne

joanne Report 12 May 2012 06:17

yes they had 9 children, but i dont really know where rochdale is but i know she died after my grandfather and he died in 1998i dont recall her living that much longer than him and the only death record i could find says 2000 all the children were born in warrington the eldest and youngest died whe they were small and i think my grandmother was in some kind of home for the aged.

Rochdale is not a million miles away from Warrington about 30 miles.

As I said everything else fits in with what you said about her siblings, you need the marriage cert to find out her age at marriage and her fathers name.

The death in Rochdale for 2000 matches with Mabel Potts who married Alfred Kinsey in 1941
