Find Ancestors

Good evening
Could anyone do me 1 more 1939 check please (this is my second one - hope thats ok?)

Its for a William A West who married a Edith Sykes in 1930 Huddersfield.
I'm interested in who was living with them and the address please?

I believe they had several daughters but I'm particularly interested in a child (male or female) born to Edith before she married William West. (Surname could possibly be Sykes, Brook or West??)

Many thanks for your time :-D

Molly West 16/04/1929

19 Well Grove

Look now for the child’s birth on freebmd.

Good evening Cass. You can ask for as many lookups as you need, there is no limit on numbers.

Thankyou.
Was Molly the only child mentioned please?

The child I'm particularly interested in was fathered by a Harold Brook but don't think he was on the birth cert so I assumed would have been born Sykes after his/her mother but may have taken the name West after his/her mother married Wm West?

Sorry realise some records are closed.

Regards
Cass :-)

Thanks for the info. Very much appreciated.

Couldn't find a birth for Molly West / Sykes / Brook that fits the birth date given above. But now found it as Mollie Sykes MMN Sykes..

Regards
Cass

:-D :-D

I think this would be her?

Just a thought, but might this be her death with the S (Sykes?) as a middle name?

Yes I think it may well be Mollie Sykes later called West.

Thankyou very much for your help

Good evening
Kind regards
Cass :-D

The first closed record may well be Betty, but you‘ll have a better idea about that than I would, as they’re your family ;-) ;-)

Thanks Erica
I have the other names of daughters and have now ascertained with the help on here the name of the child born before her mothers marriage who was actually fathered by a family member of mine.

Sadly she passed away aged 18, unmarried, so the trail goes cold but at least we now have her name. Her existence was mentioned on grandads army records but she wasn't named.

Thanks for your reply :-D
