NIGEL TURNER

knowlegable brummie
Good evening everyone and a Very HAPPY NEW YEAR....OK , on checking on my family tree with TURNERS....im lead to believe that my Grand Mother was a LILIAN TAINTON ??? If this is spelt correctly....she Married my Grandfather CYRIL FRANCIS TURNER and their family were KENNETH FRANCIS (My Father) DEREK JAMES (uncle) AND jeanette (aunty)....im hoping that someone may be able to help me out a little more on my GRANDMOTHERS side of the family etc who her parents were and any other family connections.....Unfortunately.....This is all I have, no date of marriage or even date of Birth im afraid....Hope someone may be able to help me on this.....Thank you
 
That appears to be correct Kenneth, Derek and Jeanette are all listed with mmn Tainton.

Cyril F Turner and Lilian Tainton's marriage was registered Jun qtr 1939, Bham.
 
Lilian Tainton was the daughter of James Tainton and Florence Gardner, born either 3 or 31 January 1921.

James Tainton and Florence Gardner's marriage was registered Dec qtr 1919, Bham. For both of them t appears to be their second marriages, Florence is listed as Wassall.

Florence Gardner's first marriage to Henry Wassall was registered Jun qtr 1905, Bham.

James Tainton's first marriage to Louisa Scott was registered Sep qtr 1893, Bham.

James Tainton appears to have been born 1869 in Dudley and died in 1939 Bham.

Florence Gardner appears to have been born 1882/83 in Bham and died 1937 Bham.

They both had children from their first marriages.
