Anyone know how you would find someone who lived in a house in 1968 you have no birth years or when they moved from this house cannot find any deaths for this person was a EB REED who lived in Bexhill . Electrol rolls came up with one in 2002 who lived in worthing but nothing recent

Seeing as you have an address you can look at old electoral rolls at the nearest library to that address.

Hi Eileen,

This person is not on my tree as not related to me, She was my foster carer when I was a baby in 1968. lived at Bexhill -on - sea then but wondered what happened to her

The person you are obviously looking for is a Eileen B Reed

There is a death in 2002 in Bedford for this lady....she could have been visiting someone at the time?

Name: REED, Eileen Beryl
Registration district: [?] Bedford
County: Bedfordshire
Year of registration: 2002
Month of registration: May
Date of Birth:16 September 1925

District no: 3091B
Reg no: B7D
Ent no: 071
DOR: 502

The electoral rolls are also a year in advance...so just because she was on the ER in 2002 does not mean she was alive in that year

Its possible,
because she could have moved on to Bedford, bit of a mystery really, but thanks for that. The age of her in 1968 could have put her right age for a foster carer.

Thank you

David

David

David Report 14 Mar 2014 17:30

Childrens names that you know of? and approx. ages

David

David Report 14 Mar 2014 18:37

Sorry dont know anything about children if they had any

jax

jax Report 14 Mar 2014 18:46

Was she definitely Eileen B?

Think maybe the electoral roll from 1968 is what you would need to look at to get the names of the people living there

David

David Report 14 Mar 2014 19:00

Yes she was All i know she was E B REED so may not be Eileen might be Elizabeth

All very helpful and the year of birth 1925 could be the right age in 1968 .I think I need to look at and old electrol role for 1968 and see if that gives us any more answers, but akll good stuff thank you

there was one likely birth to the Hammersmith marriage

this is probably that person

http://www.192.com/atoz/people/reed/nigel/pe29/2637729116/

that is well out of date (someone else seems to be living there now) but it gives a starting point


... this is more recent especially for the other person (click on the other Reed name)

http://www.192.com/atoz/people/reed/nigel/nn7/408160956/

in fact if you search here for that name in that place you will find the definitely matching listing
