Post subject: | Date of a death |
If anyone has access to BMD, I would be greatful l if they could have look for a relative who appears to have died in the mid 60's. The name would be Margaret Pennington and address would be Garsdale Ave , Reedley. I seem to have had a complete memory lapse about this one OK I know it's an age thing but if I can prove to myself I was elsewhere at the time it will explain the gap in my memory bank. Thanks |

Hi Hannah, the bmd info doesn't give address. Looking for Margaret Pennington between 1950 and 1970 reveals no result for Burnley/Pendle - the district I'd expect it to be under. |

Thanks Mel, never mind, I did a big clear out in the attic and found phot'os and it was a case of. oh that's???er, um. the face looks familiar but which lot is she related to. At least I managed to remember her husband was called John and he lectured at Burnley college in the 30's, but I am doomed to wondering who the lady is , love this family history sometimes!!! |

Oh Mo, you have saved me yet again, yes she was always called Maggie but I assumed it was Margaret ( when will I learn)? This fits together now, I was at college so I can close that chapter. I had better ignore the old photo's in future as I burrow through the stuff in the attic, I didn't realise so much time had gone by or that I clearly was not paying a lot of attention Thanks so much. |
