Bailey.....year of death

terryb18

Gone but not forgotten R.I.P.
Hilda Bailey......I am trying to find the year she died. She was born in Birmingham in 1901 and was married to a William Bailey. She may have been living in Church Rd, Yardley when she died.

Thanks for trying Mike, I dont think the Hilda you found is the one.Hilda Bailey was my dads sister and I know for a fact my dad was the last one living, he died in 1995.
I think Hilda probably died in the late 70's early 80's. I could be wrong though.
Terry
 
Do you have the exact date of birth for her? Did she have a middle name or names?

Doug

Unfortunatley I do not have that information, but I am going into Birmingham in the next couple of days. There are a couple of certs. I want, and her birth will be one of them. All I know is her birth was registered Sept.1/4 1901.

I now have the information. She was born 12-5-1901. in Ford St,Hockley,Birmingham. No middle name recorded. Her maiden name was Gorse.

I am not aware of her remarrying, but I won't discount anything, you never Know. Hilda was my fathers sister and probably the least that I know of. I last saw her in the 60's when she was living in Church Rd,Yardley. She had a son and daughter named Colin and Edna. I don't know what became of them.
Thanks for trying Shera and I'll keep Hilda Timmins in mind cos you never know.

Terry
P.S. would you be able to find out if a Hilda Bailey nee Gorse-- married a Timmins?

Thats fantastic Shera. I was,nt aware of her 2nd marriage as whenever anyone in the family spoke of her they always said Hilda Bailey. Cheers, you've come up trumps again.
