Whose obituary?

I'm not seeing one for either Elizabeth or Henryk.
Nor the death of either of them in 2003.

Sounds as if it might be worth contacting the Nowak who is living in Aberdeenshire as mentioned earlier. Same name as their older child.

Megs Dicky Island

Megs Dicky Island Report 23 Oct 2020 21:22

Had it confirmed that Elizabeth Hurn did marry Henryk Nowak. Can someone please look up obituary on Ancesty for 2003.
Thank you in advance.

It's a pity none of these people who recognise her as Dolly know her real name!

You've been amazing ArgyllGran. Thank you so much for your time, I’ll check those out.

Just sent a picture to my g aunt and another name has popped up Hazel from Aberdeen possible relative of Jane Newlands Hurn.

Another development in contact with a Hurn in Canada daughter of George. She also said that’s aunt Dolly.

Got a feeling this could go on a while.

In case relevant -

The Elizabeth who married in 1951 in London had two children, born in London 1951 and 1956 - findable on FreeBMD.

Someone with the unusual name of the 1951 child is living in Aberdeenshhire per 2019 ER - coincidence?? But that's not the only person with that name.

The 1956 chiild married in London in 1979.

Graham Hurn did say his Aunt Betty lived in London?

Just sent a message to Gladys Paterson granddaughter just waiting confirmation on any more siblings.

There's also this death, with YOB slightly out - but no way to tell anything more without buying the cert:

Ms Elizabeth Hurn
in the England and Wales, Death Index, 1989-2019
Name: Ms Elizabeth Hurn
Gender: Female
Age: 92
Birth Date: 1924
Last Residence: Stowmarket, Suffolk, England
Postal Code District: IP14
Death Date: 25 Apr 2016

Their daughter Elizabeth was born 1923 - birth posted on page 2, 18 Oct, at 14:52.

On your Ancestry tree you have her as dying unmarried in 1991 in Liverpool.
Other trees say the same, but will just have copied from each other.

Elizabeth Hurn
in the England & Wales, Civil Registration Death Index, 1916-2007
Name: Elizabeth Hurn
Death Age: 68
Birth Date: 8 Jun 1923
Registration Date: Dec 1991
Registration District: Liverpool
Inferred County: Merseyside
Volume: 36
Page: 1211


Do you have the death cert?

If not, I think that may be the death of this woman:

Elizabeth J Weston
in the England & Wales, Civil Registration Marriage Index, 1916-2005
Name: Elizabeth J Weston
Registration Date: Jul 1943
[Aug 1943]
[Sep 1943]
Registration Quarter: Jul-Aug-Sep
Registration District: Bootle
Inferred County: Lancashire
Spouse: Thomas W Hurn
Volume Number: 8b
Page Number: 478



I don't see a marriage for your Elizabeth to anyone in Scotland, nor to a William in England or Wales.

An Elizabeth Hurn married in London in 1951 - but to a Henryk, not a William.

Spoke to Gladys Hilda Paterson. She doesn't know Dolly or Iris, Arrrrgh.

Also another daughter for Jane and Joe Hurn, Betty married William?

Chrissie will be the Christina whose 1929 birth I posted on 18th Oct at 15:01.

As she's living I'll send you the details of her probable marriage by PM.

Megs Dicky Island Report 20 Oct 2020 22:26

I’ve spoken to a grandson of Jane Hurn nee Newlands, she did have a daughter Dolly, obviously this is a nick name. Also Jane had a daughter called Chrissie who had a son Neil. No married names for either. Chrissie is still with us living in Newmachar.
Help !

There are several other Paterson births in Newhills 1932 - and onwards.

I don't know if they're all Gladys's children or not.
No Iris among them.

A definte one is Charles Newlands Paterson 1940.
Also probably Gladys Hilda 1932.
You have Victor on your tree already.

Other possibles:
Isabella 1935; Sheila Margaret 1936; Kenneth 1936 (possibly a twin of Sheila);
Muriel 1949; Richard 1944; Patricia M J 1944; Sydney 1945; Estelle Evelyn 1946; Margaret Mary M 1947; Colin 1948; David 1949; Eric William J 1949.

Of course Paterson isn't an uncommon name.

I know!

Just sent an email to a chap I was in contact with over ten years ago, waiting for a reply. I seem to remember he had lots of information on the Hurn family.

I'm convinced Dolly is Jane's daughter and Iris's mum.
