Alma -Elma Gibson.

E

Eric Gibson

I had cousins, twins Kenneth and Alma Gibson born in 1935 I always thought it was Alma but seems it was actually Elma., I found Ken easy enough but struggled with his twin sister, He is shown in the 1939 register with his parents Alf and Rebecca but Elma isn't, so where was she and where since?
Any ideas where to look?
I know she was still around when my mom and my brother Gordon died because she came with Ken to their funerals.
 
Is there a blanked out entry at the same address that could be her?

If not then wherever she is, she will probably be blanked out there, which would make it virtually impossible to have her unblanked.

She also appears to have been incorrectly recorded on the register (scan as well) as Elina.
 
If I have the right record there is an elder brother Alfred born 1926 and 2 blanked out entries.

That's right Janice, Alf junior also attended mom's funeral, Elma's the mystery, Like all the Gibsons there are a lot of them listed as Alma or Elma all over the world.
 
In 1960 Elma is livng with her parents at 24 Padstow Road. The 3 are on the eroll. She was not listed on 1965
