And it's happened again...my first post on page 2 was this afternoon...

I replied to Joonie around 1600 hours (in the pub :-) )

Yet Joonie's answer and mine are dated tomorrow!!!!!!!

Anyway, Joonie, sadly we were both right and the child died shortly after birth (registered Q1 1948)

So sad outcome, but I guess it confirms that Stanley and Elsie's marriage did not last long -backed up by the ER evidence. Maybe next time I am in the library I'll have a look at the address that Elsie gave at her marriage and the birth of the child.

what a dog's breakfast ! yes, Genes has announced on the chat board that their clock is ... off :-)

running backwards, more like

now this will keep pushing your post 'Joonie, as per your post' and my reply '[edited out ...' (in reverse order) down the thread, but at least they are sticking together!

... oh, now it's just random ... I will stop posting!

No it's working now but the three posts that "went awol in the future" are still showing as tomorrow.....

I am sure we could make a fortune out of this somehow...natch wrong way round :-)

Genes grammar needs some addressing ...its' tut tut tut!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In case anyone wonders I wanted to be a teacher all my childhood; and when I tried it....well let's just say it wasn't for me. But I am very old school when it comes to spelling and grammar......

Well the birth 12 November 1947 came back....Margaret Mary, father James Fitzgerald. Mother Elsie Maria Mead formerly Morgan. So I wondered about this - she is May previously and after - but the address is the same as the address when she married Stanley in March 1946. So it seems the marriage lasted less than a year sadly.

So one thing put to bed. Still no further with whether Stanley or his brother George are still alive. But it seems very possible they are (and good luck to them) so won't post further about them!

[edited out info found when I thought the child had survived]

sad result even though my hunch turned out to be right



I hadn't noticed that post about me posting in the future before (I was stuck on that 8 yr old getting married) ... what did I do ?! I guess it got fixed :-)

edit - it just happened in the Anthony Adolph pinned thread too !
