You can search for free yourself ... on Ancestry I'll get you the link http://content.ancestry*co*uk/iexec/?htx=List&dbid=8965&offerid=0%3a7858%3a0 The above should take you straight to Marriage Indexes (replace * for . ) Any children to this union ? If so, names and when born ? Elaine ;-)

yeah 1903 to early she wasnt 40 when she had her first child i think she was around 40 when her husband passed away in tragic circumstances the 1918 seems right maise had a brother albert hunter and i think another sibling not sure of name i think albert is younger not by much though

You've NOT got either birth cert for Derek or Vivian then. Are you positive Maisie's name is Maisie, and that isn't a 'pet' name ...? Elaine ;-) Have checked 1940 - X

Percival R V Bradford = Maisie J Hunter March qtr 1942 Harwich 4a, 2207 Where did you get the name William from ? You need Derek or Vivian's BIRTH cert to confirm the parents names .... YOU can search for free on Ancestry. Use the link I gave you above .... and search through the births :-)) Elaine ;-)

BIRTH Percival R V Bradford June qtr 1919 MMN: Wyatt Ashby de La Zouch 7a, 91 Possible parents to Percival ..??? MARRIAGE Horace Bradford = Selina E Wyatt Dec qtr 1916 Ashby De La Zouch 7a, 233 With Maisie marrying Percival R V Bradford, and Percival R V Bradford being born in Ashby .... there is a small chance that Horace Bradford and Selina (Wyatt) are Percival's parents ... but the marriage cert for Maisie & Percival will confirm Percy's Dad's name. Elaine ;-) Can't find Maisie J Hunter's birth - have checked 1918 - 1924 inc -BUT there are some qtrs missing: June 1921 missing Ancestry March 1922 missing Dec 1922 missing so those qtr's need checking on 1837online before you continue the search. Good Luck Elaine ;-)
