Hi there,

Researching families of Upstone/Cook - Kent and Basingstoke areas.

Sybil May Upstone 1916 (mother Waterton) - daughter Pauline 1938
Married Frederick L Cook

Not sure if Pauline is still alive, married - this is my brick wall as I can't go further without a possible spouse surname.

Anyone researching the same? All replies appreciated and thanks in advance.

Hi everyone and thank you so much for the responses.

I've now got certificates for Sybil's birth, marriage and death; and her daughter Pauline's birth.

I am trying now to find living relatives of Pauline but not sure if Pauline got married or not, and to whom. So.. sleuthing continues.

:-)

You should look in search trees

A member named Pauline has Sybil in her GR tree
