Jean is the last of my dad's 8 cousins who is possibly alive and she appears to have not had any children.

What Jean marriages are you seeing? I cant find any Wood/Lever Marriages.

I have found this possible but a blooming long shot and wondered if this Jean is the same person

A Jean Wood married a John Wrigley in Saddleworth, Yorks in 1956 and then a Jean Wrigley married a Normal Lever in 1960 in Huddersfield, Yorks..

I don't see any likely births of children from either of Jean's marriages.

Delboy1978 Report 23 Feb 2024 16:32

yeah very mindful of that. Hence why I havent done it yet and want to look for possible children first

There is no record of that house having been sold since 2019 (or ever) , so if she's the owner , Jean may still be there, possibly having opted out of the public ER.

However, if she is still there, and if you try to contact her, bear in mind that she is 92.
You don't know what her state of health may be.

Hi All

I am revisiting this thread as I've had updates.

I purchased a death cert and I have found that Florence Wood is the one who died in Wales in 2005! She must have moved there when her husband died and lived a few doors down in the same street as her daughter.

The informant was her daughter Jean Pamela Lever and they both lived in the same street in Tywyn in Wales. I have both the addresses so can see if Jean still lives there.

We have all looked for Florence and Lorna/Rose in 1939 already, and can't find them

Sometimes the records one would like to find just aren't there.

Perhaps their records are still closed.

Me Again
Still researching this lot.

I cannot find Florence Wood in the 1939 Register, she isnt living with her husband but cannot find her anywhere. He is at number 20 Villiers Avenue and at number 15 its left blank with a question mark next to number 15

this is the details from the electoral register in the years before...

1931 - Leonard Charles, with Edward Robert and Maud Alice, is at 97 Myrtle Road, Twickenham.

1934 - Charles Leonard (sic) and Florence are at 5 Parkside Road, Twickenham.
1935 - Charles Leonard and Florence at that address.
1936 - Leonard Charles and Florence are at 5 Parkside Road.

1937 & 1938 - Leonard Charles and Florence are at 15 Villiers Avenue, Twickenham.

From at least 1947 onwards, Florence and Leonard C (or G) were at 61 Pope's Avenue .
He's Leonard C in all years except 1963 and 1964, when he's Leonard G.

Rose Knott (aka Rose L Knott or Lorna R Knott) is at the same address: cant find her either.

Can someone take a look for me please? Thanks

I know, there is a tonne of records for Jean Wood's out there. I many never find out but I will keep working on it

Jean Pamela may well still be alive.

If she hasn't married or died in the UK, and if she has opted out of the public Electoral Roll (assuming she is living in the UK) there will be no online records for us to find.

Unfortunately for us, there are lots of women named Jean Wood.

Hi All
Me again.....

So I have the birth certificate for Jean Pamela Wood.

Born 1st March 1932, 30 Twickenham Road, Isleworth.

Father: Leonard Charles Wood (Charles again!) was a Motor Car Driver
Mother: Florence Wood formerly Knott

Be great to find out more about her as she would be my dads cousin.

I have ruled out the Wood/Ansell marriage as the records suggest the middle name is Primrose

Delboy1978

Delboy1978 Report 28 Sep 2022 14:17

Certainly cant rule them out until proven otherwise.

as she was a widow in the 90s and their house sold in 2003 she may have moved in or near with a relative until she passed away.

I'm wondering about this death as a possibility for Florence.

It's in an unexpected place, but the DOB would fit with her birth registration in the Apr/May/Jun quarter of 1909, and also with her baptism in April 1909.

It's a pity there are so many Florence Woods.
