Notes for (Thomas) Geoffrey Biscoe & Laura K Mary (Family)
This has to be their marriage:
Surname First name(s) Spouse District Vol Page
Marriages Jun 1947 (>99%)
Baker Laura K M Lightfoot Stroud 7b 1473
Lightfoot Thomas G B Baker Stroud 7b 1473
The clues are:
1. I had been told her name was Laura.
2. The bridegroom’s initials are exactly the same as the Geoff’s brith registration.
3. Their daughter’s birth registration gave the mother’s maiden name of Baker.
These clues then led to finding her death and from that to her birth.
