hi all..

wanting to know if someone can do a 1939 lookup for me for Ralph Rodgerson born sunderland 1913 ..
I have all the previous census for his father ralph 1892 and family.. they were living in st lukes rd sunderland in 1911..
I know ralph (the father) died in 1939 so don't know when the register was taken if he would have still been alive or whether the register will just show ralph with siblings ( if any )

thanks

Dea Report 11 May 2016 17:33

I don't think that the top marriage will be connected as Barbara was born in 1901 and died in 1969 so probably the wrong age for 'your' Ralph.

Strangely though, Vera's mother's maiden name was Emmerson.
