Notes for Thyrza J Ritchie
In 1947 she married again: presumably there was a prior divorce:
The number of different names between them must have been a tad confusing for the registrar:
Surname First name(s) Spouse District Vol Page
Marriages Mar 1947 (>99%)
Brandon Robert B Longbotham Chelsea 5c 606
Brandon Robert B Ritchie Chelsea 5c 606
Braun Robert B Longbotham Chelsea 5c 606
Braun Robert B Ritchie Chelsea 5c 606
Longbotham Thyrza J Brandon Chelsea 5c 606
Longbotham Thyrza J Braun Chelsea 5c 606
RITCHIE Thyrza J Brandon Chelsea 5c 606
RITCHIE Thyrza J Braun Chelsea 5c 606
The question is whether she then used Brandon or Braun for her surname. No death found under either surname up to 2006.
