My friend is trying to find a record of parents or other family for Olga Ida BELCHAMBERS who died in UK in1985. Her death certificate states that she was a spinster, 81, born in India on 4 February 1904.
Her nephew Clarence Harland PIGOT was the informant.
I have found what I believe is a record of his marriage and death in England and his travel ( with fiancee? ) on a ship arriving Tilbury in June 1956. Their destination is to an address c/o Mrs PIGOT in Welling, Kent. In old lists of telephone directories I have found Olga Ida living at that same address into 1980s.
Please can someone help with family links?

Thank you for looking Ann.
We came up with the same lack of records for Olga in India. I couldn't see her on immigration lists either.
Alan Edgar was born in Kingston, Surrey and went to India because of his Army career. He returned to UK and fits into a known family.

Thank you everyone. There is some excellent information here.
I do think the spouse is Clarence Osbourne PIGOT. I had come across a probable death for him in UK in 1965.
I see probate after Eric's death was granted to Olga Ida, thus confirming the link.
My friend will be delighted when I phone her.

My friend was so pleased with the information....Thank you.
She now has another query......probably linked to the same family group.
She has England death cert. for a Jessica Florence BELCHAMBER 70,..of Bickley, Kent..,who died in 1959..the widow of Oswin Harland BELCHAMBER, a retired Burmah Oil employee. Informant was C.K.TREVOR, nephew.of S.W.16. How does he link to her and how does Oswin fit into the family which also have Harland as a middle name. Friend has not found UK information for Oswin.
Any help would be great please.
