Find Ancestors

Hi. I am currently researching into the Cornock family tree and wondered if anyone had any information.

I thought that i would start off trying to find Gertrude Thornhill born 1887 and died 1962. She married Ferdinand James Cornock and then Harold Malpass Cornock.

I think Gertrude was born in the Slimbridge area and then moved to Bristol.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you, Lisa

This looks like Gertrude

Thank you all for your input re my Grandmother, she is a real mystery, different census years give different places of her birth, but mainly born in Bangor,North Wales. I have details of her 1st marriage to Henry Hurd, My father was the second son from her 2nd marriage, to Emmanuel Hobbs in 1891.
You have given me a few more leads to follow up.
Thanks again.
