I think it is 5b 1378.

From information from Denise's friend who is the one all this is for - Jean had two children under the name Else - Carol in 1953 and Lesley in 1955. I have found their births. There were apparently twin boys around 1960 but not sure which surname they were under or their first names. Then there was Jennifer and Susan as Brendon between about 1961 and 1966. I haven't been able to find twins under Else or Brendon and neither have I found Jennifer and Susan under Brendon.

It is making me wonder whether Brendon is the right name.

The only Smith/Else marriage I could find was in 1947 between an Arthur Else and an Iris M Smith and that was in Sheffield.

I have suggested to Denise's friend that she re-checks the information she has been given as I just cannot believe I cant find a bean on this Brendon name - which makes me think the name is wrong. Perhaps it is Brandon or Brennan or something.

Or they didn't marry in England and Wales....
