Poor woman!

Freebmd shows all the births to have been in Nottingham reg. There is another Pearce/Bilington birth in 1940, Walsall. Is that the same family or the child of a different couple?

What do you hope to achieve by starting this thread? If you are looking for living relatives, then use the search all members trees (top right under search) to see if they are featured in any other trees.

If you are wish trace them forward, then look for marriages, then deaths.

Roy W might have married in 1956 - check out the Nottingham result on Freebmd. Click on the blue 997 to see the spouses first name.

Check to see if they had any children by entering Pearce & the mother's maiden name in the appropriate boxes.

There is an entry to 2003 for his name in Nottingham on 192.com (Electoral roll) As he may have opted out and still be living, discretion is needed!
