I suppose this one is also possible but would mean quite a gap to the birth.

But no guarantess if you don't know his parents or birthplace. Jim

Hi Jim I don't know karen

Do you know if Kathleen was the eldest? Jim

Hi Jim, yes, he was older. Thankyou Karen

There is a Walter Foster who died in 1959. Q3. Reg is Durham S E 1a 492. Age is given as 64 which would make him 27 years older than Kathleen. Is this likely? Jim

will take a look for possible marriege back soon

Hi Jim, He is the right one, I have Kathleens father he is called John James Turner, I dont't know his D.O.B Thanks Karen

Hi Karen. Have been looking for his death to get age. But no luck. Are you sure he is FORSTER and not FOSTER. 1945 Q4 wedding shows Foster. Ref is Darlington 10a 65. If he is Foster - that's why I did not find his death. Without a certificate, it is always going to be hard work. If you get a copy of the marriage certificate using the reference, it will give ages at time of marriage and father's names. Once you have Kathleen's father's name, you can look for somebody with that name marrying a Miss Wood at around the right time and place. You could try guess work but it is not always reliable. Jim

Hi Roy Thanks for letting me know Karne

their are no available Census for these dates the latest census is 1901, 1911will not be available untill 1912 you will need to search using BMD certs to verify details untill you get back to 1901 census Roy

I have a Kathleen Turner born 6 May 1922, Darlington, her mmn is Wood. Kathleen married Walter Forster oct 1945, he died abt 1959, she remarried abt 1980 and she died in 1991. I am looking for any census date of Kathleens parents or her first husband Walters parents, I have no births or wifes names for either parents. They were living Darlington/Durham Thank you Karen
