___________________________

A Louise Moran married Kenneth Smith in 1923 in Stoke on Trent.
A Louisa Moran married David Johnson in 1932 in Stoke on Trent.

Can they be found with their married name in the 1939 Register:

None of the Louise_Moran-Kenneth_Smith marriage was to be found in Staffs in 1939.
Similarly for the Louisa_Moran-David_Johnson marriage.

There was a Lousa Johnson death in:
1961 in Don Valley, Yorks,
1972 in Newton le Willows, Lancs.

There were Louisa Smith Deaths in:

1941 in Stoke on Trent, Staffs
1980 in Stoke on Trent, Staffs
1995 in Cannock Chase, Staffs

Nothing identifiable or interlocking in the above.

Have put her on 1921 census list.
______________________

In fact her sister Mary Toft, née Moran, included Louise in her will of 1948, calling her ‘Louise Smith’.  Mary also appointed Kenneth Smith as her executor.  So it sounds very strongly that Louise did marry Kenneth Smith, above in 1923 and both were alive in 1948.
______________________

There were 8 Smith births with a Moran mother born in Staffs from 1923 to 1943.  I have no idea if any were theirs.  They do not appear on the 1939 register.
