Birth certs don't give parents' ages. The address on the cert would be that at which the birth occurred, plus the address of the informant, if that was different

Does it give an address or age for Florence Emma Blake?

ErikaH

ErikaH Report 16 Mar 2021 14:24

No, not together

Look at the info provided on here, and check births on freebmd

To find living relatives, you'll have to do some research

Try 'search all member trees' on here as a starting point

If you find any connections, please be VERY tactful if you think of trying to make contact

BTW, I see that you have in your GR tree a Douglas Caleb Wyatt born 1907 - what connection does he have?

Fmp take on the 1939 register.

98 Sawmill Woodhouse, Rowlands Castle, Petersfield R.D., Hampshire, England

Wyart household
(8 people)
First name(s) Last name(s) DOB Sex Occupation Marital status Schedule Schedule Sub Number
*Douglas Wyart 03 Apr 1909 Male Head Cowman Married 163 1
*Laura E Wyart 30 Aug 1905 Female Unpaid Domestic Duties Married 163 2

The record for this person is officially closed.

*Laurence A Short 14 May 1937 Female Under School Age Single 163 4
Laurence Short 16 May 1921 Male Cowman Single 163 5
-Douglas J Wyatt 30 Apr 1932 Male At School Single 163 3
-Douglas J Wyatt (Wright) 01 May 1905 Male Head Cowman Married 163 1

Looking at the register, there are only 5 people in the household. The last -2 names are not there and the first *3 names have been scored through and corrections put on another page.


So on another page we have Douglas J Wyatt 03/04/09 head cowman, Laura E Wyatt 30 Aug 05 and Douglas J Wyatt 30 Apr 1932 at school.

Re your mention of a possible Betty/Betsy -

another total stab in the dark - apart from name and location:

???
Marriages Mar 1934 (>99%)
Blake Alice E Wicks Cuckfield 2b 320
Wicks Charles J Blake Cuckfield 2b 320

There were three children of that marriage in the 1930s, registered in Cuckfield.


Ancestry suggests this is her baptism:

Alice Elizabeth Blake
in the London, England, Church of England Births and Baptisms, 1813-1917
Name: Alice Elizabeth Blake
Baptism Age: 0
Record Type: Baptism
Birth Date: 18 Feb 1917
Baptism Date: 18 Apr 1917
Baptism Place: England, Christ Church, Battersea, Wandsworth
Father: James Blake
Mother: Harriet Ruth Blanche Blake


Probably Alice E in 1939, with three closed records - and maybe DOB a little out:

Alice E Wicks
in the 1939 England and Wales Register
Name: Alice E Wicks
Gender: Female
Marital Status: Married
Birth Date: 17 Mar 1917
Residence Year: 1939
Address: [ Royal George Road on image ]
Residence Place: Burgess Hill, Sussex, England
Occupation: Unpaid Domestic
Line Number: 21
Schedule Number: 275
Sub Schedule Number: 1
Enumeration District: EJCA
Borough: Burgess Hill
Registration district: 76 - 3

[Three closed records with her ]
Charles probably in the forces.

??
Death:

WICKS, ALICE ELIZABETH 34
GRO Reference: 1951 S Quarter in BRIGHTON Volume 05H Page 130


Her husband Charles James Wicks, born 1915 in Lewes, died 2001 in Colchester.

Seems to have remarried in 1965 to BESSIE Mary Barber, who died in Colchester in 2001.

I'm wondering about this man - although only because of name, and locations - Sussex and Hampshire.


Marriages Mar 1933 (>99%)

Wyatt Douglas J Standing Brighton 2b 358


Douglas J Wyatt
in the 1939 England and Wales Register

Inferred Children:

Household Members Age

This record is officially closed.
Lawrence A Wyatt 2
Laurence A Short 18


Note birthplace of son Lawrence.

Births Jun 1937 (>99%)
Wyatt Lawrence A Standing Cuckfield 2b 213

Their other son (presumably the closed record) was born in 1932 in Brighton and named Douglas.

There's no previous marriage for Douglas J, but perhaps he had an unmarried relationship with a Blake. Just a wild suggestion.

We'll have to wait for the birth cert!



ADDED info, just in case:

ArgyllGran Report 10 Mar 2021 09:20

As already said, there is no Wyatt/Blake marriage - at least not in England, Wales, or Scotland.

His mother may have been married before, or else he may have been born illegitimately but registered under his father's surname.

The date of Douglas H N's marriage is irrelevant.

When the birth cert arrives, please come back and let us know what it says.
