When my wife was 2 years old, her mother left the family house never to be seen again. For the past 15 years we've been trying to find out what happened to her and we've made a breakthrough in August. Unfortunately the discovery was that her mother died in 1999 in Brixton, South London. Part of the problem was that her birth name was Dorothy Joan Johnson but it seems after her departure she was known as Joan Johnson. |

Steve, the best way to find any immediate relatives is to use the Search all member trees function, top right under Search. |

Had Marjorie been married previously or had they been cohabiting before their marriage? |

Do you have the grandparents MC? What is their declared status - single, divorced (although that would be rare) or widowed? |

Dorothy’s Death record shows birth date matching 1939 register above |

Can’t see a birth for Marjorie May Ellis to tally with 1939 |

There’s a female Johnson/Ellis birth in Lambeth in 1932 |

Having checked her death, the mother’s DOB was 16/4/1906. Probably ‘lost’ a year because her husband was younger. |

Her death was registered as just Dorothy so she must have been known by that name after she left the family. |

Death was registered twice as Dorothy and Joan |

Hi all, |

So I believe the entries in the 1913 register to be relevant and correct. Charles E Johnson (2/12/1913) and Marjorie May Johnson (16/4/1907) had a child called "This record is officially closed" and "Johnson (Baby)" |

The 1939 Register posted was found on FMP. They have an ongoing programme of matching deaths 1992, when it ceased being a working document, to 2006. When they can find the original 1939 entry then they’ll remove the redaction. |

If you have both of Marjorie's marriage certificates you will know the names and occupations of John H's father and Charles E's father. If you wish to share those details we can perhaps find a relationship, if any, between John and Charles. |
