Parker

Me again

The only thing i was wondering about Oliver is, did they change his surname to Allen or keep Allcott, not a question, just my thoughts.

I was pleased for you that your mom had given you so much information, now you know more than you did a few weeks ago so you are making progress in the right direction, we will do our best to add to your knowledge

I'm not sure on that one Bren? It is possible they may of changed it. I will ask Mom if she knew when I see her next.

Thanks. It is amazing how quickly a scribbled down family tree can grow! I wasn't expecting to write down so much and there is still more on Dad's side to find out as well!! I really enjoy playing detective though lol. This is an hobby I have meant to get into for years now and I am glad I have started! :)

I will look for the marriages of above and the kids next, get the immediate family done first


bren

 
Hi Bren, thanks for that.

Mom told me Pam was 2 years older than Yvonne so I presume she was born a Devlin and that is right! I wonder if Mom got it wrong and she was in fact 2 years younger than Yvonne? Mom said she was 12 when she died, she died in a swimming pool accident. She was brought up by Mom's Aunt Laura and Uncle Fred Allen so I don't know if they adopted her and Allen is on her death certificate? I am seeing Mom again Friday so I shall check up on this again.

Frank. :)
 
Marriage --

Yvonne M Parker/Michael A Skinner 3rd qtr 1980 Birmingham 32 0390

Birth of Mark, born well before marriage so don't know why he was called Skinner, very confusing --

Mark William Parker mmn Parker 4th qtr 1975 Meriden 34 0229

Sorry it is taking so long but with names being changed at will it means i am having to search through the years with one name and then if i don't find it i have to try another name


bren
 
No worries Bren, you take as long as you need, I am really grateful to you! :)

Yvonne had Mark before she married Mick. I think he just took the name on when she married?! I thought Mark was born in Birmingham, oh well what do I know! LOL.

I have found someone who is related to the Allcott's, I am really chuffed! I have sent you a guest invitation to look at my Family Tree so far on Ancestry.com if you like? :rolleyes:
 
Meriden was in Birmingham, thats why it had the same volume number, it's only in the more modern records it has changed.

Hi Frank

I have searched every way i know and cannot find a birth for Joanne, i have searched with just christian names and no one comes up, surname of Shingler or Parker with no results at all, sorry.

bren
 
Hi Bren.

Joanne was born on 13th Jan 1994 at Heartlands Hospital. Her middle name is Katherine.

Don't worry if you can't find it. :)

I found out today that Pam Devlin is not a Devlin but presumably an Allcott as Mom had her before she got married by a different partner.

Regarding my Uncles and Aunts, I haven't been able to find out any dates yet.

Cheers,

Frank.

Hi Bren, if you are not to busy can you help me out on this please?

I am finding it hard to go further than my Dad's Mom and Dad without knowing any more than what I know? If I knew something I could find out their parents etc.

I spoke to Dad on the phone today and he said his Dad, William Parker, died in 1959, Wolverhampton. He didn't say what year he was born only that it was January 1st.

His Mom, Catherine Parker MMM Percival, died in 1940, Wolverhampton. Again he didn't say what year she was born only the date, March 23rd.

I do know Catherine's parents were Thomas Percival and Florence MMM Ives.

Can you help please? :rolleyes:
