help again please

Edith Sevill/Sirrell died 1965 ish she and Maurice did not marry as he was married to Olive Eales,

So looking for Ediths death (and boy have I looked)

But if Olive died, as suggested earlier, in 1940, then Maurice would have been free to marry.

Perhaps it was Edith that was married? Sirrell/ Sevill may have been her maiden or married name. She may not have wanted her married name on Alan's birth certificate?

EDIT- Or did Maurice also marry Amy Kendrew? So he was possibly still married to Amy?

I haven't checked this out yet- but possible?

Death:

Birth Date: 3 Nov 1926
Date of Registration: Dec 1969
Age at Death: 43
Registration district: Durham Western
Inferred County: Durham
Volume: 1a

---------------------------------

Possibly Jane Walker's daughter before her marriage to William C Sirrell?
There is this birth in the same area of her later child (note mm is Sedgefield, but I don't see a Sedgefield/ Walker marriage

Births Dec 1926 (>99%)
Walker Edith Sedgefield Sedgefield 10a 295

Births Dec 1930 (>99%)
Sirrell Elizabeth Walker Sedgefield 10a 296

EDIT: Ok, looks like you've already researched this one? http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/ancestors/thread/1263728?page=0
