Frank Gwilliames was born in Worcestershire in 1899 and his wife Ruth Lavinia was born in 1902.
My parent's told me that they were married in Kidderminster but then they moved away to possibly the Coventry area.

Could some kind soul find them for me please in the 1939 register please?

Thank you from Nala. :-)

Thank you both for your findings.

That fits........................When "Uncle Frank" visited he came in a Standard 8 car which I used to sit in pretending to drive. Memories !!

I wonder if ARP was to do with Air Raids and such ?


A very happy Nala. :-D
