I am looking for Doreen Duckfield(maidenname) of Llangunnor, Carmarthen. My father was Ken Duckfield, his father was D'Arcy and grandfather Alfred from Spilman Street Carmarthen. Doreen would be in her seventies and may well have married.

Welcome to the boards, Catharine.
Is Doreen your aunt, or cousin, or other relative?
When and where was she last known, or do you just have birth information?
Thank-you

That is really wonderful thank you! I had only managed to find Ernest's (because he died) war record; I was sure the others must have served-we used to have a photo of D'Arcy in a flying helmet but although he was in the RFC I don't think it was for long. :-D :-D :-D

If you want to trace Gwyneth Doreen, you need that marriage certificate to check for information.
There is this death which may be him, but he would be 18 years older than her:

Gosh! So she could still be in the Carmarthen area, which is brilliant. My father ssid he had heard she had married a couple of times but he lost touch with her in the 1970's.

There is another marriage in 1988 to a Eynon L Hughes who looks to have died in 2002 but would have been 30 years older than her if that is her marriage
She is on the electoral roll aged 65+ if you would like the address

I am new to this website but am absolutely amazed at the speed and accuracy of all your replies... I shall be hyper all night now! I'm assuming she is on the electoral roll as Gwyneth Doreen Hughes? My father did say there was a big age gap but not if it was each marriage. Thank you all! <3

Many thanks to all of you for your speedy assistance in tracing my relative, Doreen. Thanks to your information, I was able to write to the person most likely to be her...it WAS her and she has now telephoned me. Thank you again for such a success! :-D
