Can anyone please help? Im trying to find out more about Catherine Rosemary Helen Steedman born in 1920 in Hampshire. This is my great grandmother. I know that she died in Blackburn, Lancashire in June 1966. She married William Curwen who was bon in 1913 and died in 1947. They had three children together; Brian Michael Curwen (who is my grandfather) born in January 1942, David Bruce Curwen born in 1945 and sadly passed away in Blackpool Hospital in 1963, and Hazel Curwen born in 1947.
I have managed to find Catherines mother who was called Daisy May Dallas born in 1898 and her father is obviously called Steedman but I can not find anything on him.
Catherine had a brother and sisters. I have found Eva Mp Steedman born in 1916 and died in 2000. Hazel E Steedman born in 1925, Daisy Steedman and Larry Steedman who my Grandfather remembers but I can not find anything. If anyone could help I would really appreciate it. I am new to all of this and find this really interesting.

Could this be the marraige of Daisy May Dallas?

1911 census if this is your Daisy Dallas look who is a boarder in the same house! He's a great deal older than her!

Wow thank you for your help. It couldnt possibly be her husband could it? But then again im sure my Grandfather said she married again after William died.

It looks very much like Daisy's marriage to William!!! She would of only been 17 so it makes sense when my Grandfather tells me she re-married when William died.

Looking for Catherines birth but cannot see it! Have you her birth cert or DOB?

How can I give you access to my tree?

Catherine Rosemary Helen Steedman
Born in 1920 in Hampshire England
Died in 1966 Blackburn, Lancashire
perhaps she didnt use Catherine as her name? Im really struggling to find anything.

I can view your tree already by clicking on your user name! I see You have Catherines DOB as 1920,where did you get that info from? I can see her siblings births just not hers.

It was a date my Grandfather gave me, so perhaps its wrong?
