from Bham
There is a death reg. for a John W Ready (b1906) Jun qtr 1983 Bham, which possibly corresponds to the crematorium record. Bham bereavement records don't seem to contain a middle name/initial on search results.
Yes, thank you, no matter how hard I try, I cannot replicate the information you were able to retrieve from the official records. This is probably why I have had such poor results. Even here in Ireland, when I was looking for his birth date, I had to change location to find him. The last census was for 1911 and he was the only family member not on it. He was born later that year, census after that either lost in fire or not available.
Okay, thank you!

As it was on the eroll under Yardley it is not the one in Solihull.
However, I think there are parts of that area which are often referred to as Solihull.

Don't think so Lyn as it was under Yardley on the eroll.

The area where it is is so close to Solihull it often gets referred to as Solihull.
If he died in Solihull hospital then his death would be registered in Solihull which is a separate area and does not come under Birmingham. If you searched for a death in Birmingham it would likely not show the Solihull one.

That's disappointing, would they have owned or rented do you think? I'm thinking of property records!
There is a Church near by, St Michael's and All Angels?

Solihull and Birmingham are two distict registration areas. The confusion is that there is a Yew Tree Lane in both. However, the one where they lived is defintitely the Yardley, Birmingham one NOT the Solihull one.
Deaths are registered where the person dies not where they lived. We do not, at the moment, know where he lived when he died not where he died.

Not Catholic.
But I would have thought she died dome years before this. I only have information from my Cousin, born in London but moved his family to Canada shortly after John's death, he has not had any contact with Maureen since either, so all recollections are vague to say the least. I would be very happy if this were she!
And sa
D to think that we were searching so long and have missed her by so short a time.
That doesn't look likely then, I don't know who J might be.
