Avril Parker Report 30 Jul 2010 17:12

Hi my name is Avril and i am a great neice of Evelyn walker i know she was born on the 30th of april 1917 but im not sure where or what her mothers maiden name was at the time of her birth i know that evelyn died on the 8th of october 1968 in missippi state of the usa and i know that she is buried in the natchez cemetery in missippi usa .
i have tried looking up her birth and either she is born in ecclesall or she was born in darlington ??????? Evelyn had a sister called Doris walker who later married my grandfather and become Parker she was born in 1910 in salford and died 1946 at the age of 36 in bury st edmunds suffolk uk but i cant find any further records relating to these people

How far is salford to cholton ???? and how would i find out her mothers maiden name because her mother would be Evelyns mother ????

jax

jax Report 30 Jul 2010 18:43

how do you know she was born in salford?? seeing as she married on the south coast and died on the east coast

Avril, they are registration districts, each covering several parts of Manchester. The edge of Chorlton District joins Salford District. She might have been born in the Chorlton District, but lived in or moved to Salford.

To know her parents you would need to buy that certificate - but hang fire for a bit, as it might not be right.

The only thing we are sure about is that Doris married William S Parker in 1936 - that certificate would tell you who her father was.
