Thanks!
Yes, having noticed the DOB, I see she is the same Joyce who married William Marshall, which is what I was wondering about.

The reason for my search is that my attention was caught by a Facebook post:

"I’ve been researching an RAF crew who were all killed in action in 1944 and discovered that one of them knew a Miss J Kingston of 7 East Street Bodicote, probably in the Summer of 1943 when they were at 12 OTU RAF Chipping Warden. It’s a really long shot but I’m hoping that someone might recognise this lady’s name and possibly know something about her and her friendship with Johnny Waycott from Perth, Australia. She wrote to his family in October 1943 so he must have meant a lot to her. I’m in touch with his nephew who is looking for photos of the uncle he never knew. "

William John Waycott had been stationed at Spilsby at the time of his death in 1943.
So, just in case, I looked for a Spilsby marriage of a Miss J Kingston, and found that one - so then I was trying to work out if the woman who married was the one born in 1927, as that seemed a feasible YOB.

And it seems that's the correct answer!
Thanks again! Problem solved!

She was still listed as Kingston when her father died.

She and Carol Ann Kingston are named in the London Gazette on 17th March 1974, relating to claims against the father's estate

BTW DoB is 20 March 1927

There isn't a married name for Joyce. But there are two for Kate. It's the same image on both sites.

The closed record on the line above June Elsie is her sister Joyce Louisa 1927.

I can see her name on the image on Ancestry, even though the Ancestry transcription still shows a closed record.

It's a vain hope, but I wonder if FMP shows a married name for Joyce?
Ancestry doesn't.

Thanks!
