Thanks Richard/ Ray. So if my Aunt (Mary J Williams - marital name Kingdom) worked at a 'Stator Winder' (second line down on image)' then SHE would have worked at GEC (in Small Motors, Standard Motors or Fan Shop)? Please can you clarify your further comment below: 'By t the site of ICI Higgs...

Hi, Just seen this thread about GEC (Witton Works). My Late Great Aunt (Mary J Williams Born 1923 - 181 Deykin Anvenue - Witton) worked as a 'Stator Winder' in 1939. I'm unsure if she worked at GEC as she had a pension from ICI (30 years service). But I do remember GEC being mentioned as a young...

Mary was Born 1923 and yes maybe it was GEC? Would explain the 'Stator Winder' position.

With Regard to my Great Aunt Mary (Josephine Williams). I have established she was born 30th November 1923 and lived with her Mum Mary and Father James (new info) at 181 Deykin Avenue (Witton) and looks like the Father died 1930 (aged 50). But I am interested in Mary J's: Early life Schools...

Hi All, Many Thanks indeed for your help in my research, I hope to go back to the Library Thursday to see if they can help me on further on my search of Mary Williams. My Late Aunt Mary J Kingdom (Williams) did speak about her Mum Mary (Williams) a lot and about how her faith and religion was...

Thanks for the info.

Hi, A Staff member at the Library printed this off for me and gave me some links to resources but did not get a lot from it, possibly you need some patience, perseverance with the websites, I'm not much of a detective tbh. Looks like 87 but could be 89?

Hi Lyn, Thanks. Yes, I did notice a (Male) McDonnell born in 1919 in my search (did not see the name Jordan), so I guess he could be from a previous marriage as you've suggested. My Late Aunt (Mary J Kingdom 1923-2024) was Mary's daughter (same forename as her Mum), did not mention any Jordan...

My late great Aunt's mother Mary Williams (Born 1887 - Died 1949) lived on Deykin Avenue (181) Witton. She was widowed in 1939 (shows in records) but cannot find who she was married to and his occupation (no references found, from some searching). Looking for research tips to find further...
