I said I'd try to help my friend but up til now I've been unable to find anything so hoping someone out there can help me. I'm looking for the following: Jeannie/Jannie Cunningham born c1920 married Josiah John Smith. Died c1958 in London. She had a daughter Brenda born 1947 and a second daughter Pamela ? I have searched every aspect I can think of in Ancestry Complete BMD but can't find anything at all. Can anybody throw any light on this please. Linda |

My friend is Pamela and she would like to know her mothers details in order to search out where she is buried. She doesn't know if any of the info. is 100%, she was brought up in a childrens home and has very little details of anything. |

Thanks Reg, I'll take a look on the Scottish records but it still doesn't fit that I can't find anything else and she is sure her mother died in Guys Hospital, London but no death registration. |

Pam remembers the childrens home was called Woodrough and the woman in charge was a Miss Wingate but that's it |

No Rose, She doesn't have anything with anything original on it. She's had a very tragic life and doesn't even know where she got the info. she's given me. Just said it's 'bits and pieces' she picked up along the way. |

Ordering her birth cert would be a good starting point. This would confirm her parent's names. The bits and pieces she's picked over the years might not even be correct. When was she born? Rose |

She's listed as being born in Jun 1950 Camberwell 5c 296. Her first move has to be to order her birth cert. Rose |

I've checked England/Wales marriages 1946 -1950. No record of Jean** Cunningham marrying a Smith. Reg |
