I would take a guess that this is Nona, but you will need to confirm with the marriage certificate.

England & Wales, Birth Index, 1916-2005 about Nona Moore
Name: Nona Moore
Mother's Maiden Surname: Edwards
Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1920
Registration district: Lanchester
Inferred County: Durham
Volume Number: 10a
Page Number: 608

Possible parents????

Marriages Sep 1912 (>99%)
Edwards Margaret A Moore Lanchester 10a 653
MOORE George J S T Edwards Lanchester 10a 653

Wiliam's death gives his birth as 1879 so you would have been much older than Nona but the marriage cert. will confirm , or not:-

England & Wales, Death Index, 1916-2007 about William Hall
Name: William Hall
Birth Date: 9 Jul 1879
Date of Registration: Jun 1978
Age at Death: 98
Registration district: Durham Western
Inferred County: Durham
Volume: 1
Page: 1449


Any idea where and when Nona died?

Rambling Report 10 Oct 2014 21:01

I note you have a birthdate of 1912 for Nona on your tree but a birthdate for William as 1908? which would seem more likely

EDITED above as tree has birthdate for Nona as 1912 and death abt 1978 but I can't see a matching death??

The William Hall that died in 1978 County Durham was born in 1879, not 1908 so what information are you absolutely sure about?

Catherine

Catherine Report 10 Oct 2014 21:31

Can't see a birth for a Nona Moore anywhere in the country in 1904 or early 1905?

Rambling

Rambling Report 10 Oct 2014 21:35

I think the Nona Hall who died in 1974 is for this birth so can be discounted anyway
Births Dec 1904
Hall Nona Glendale 10b 521

Are you in contact with any of his children to see what information they have?

Thank-you

Rambling Rose,

Nona Moore birth date 1920 in tree?

So:
Births Dec 1920
Moore Nona Edwards Lanchester 10a 608

And she could be still alive, or married again if only 58 when husband died?

Hi
Thankyou for all of your help. We have no contact or knowledge of any of the Hall family unfortunately
All the information on our tree has been guesswork & what my husband can remember.

Kind Regards
Joanne.
