His father (now deceased) didn't tell him much about his mother and he didn't really know his relatives on his mother's side, so naturally he would like to know more about her. Through the internet, we have established that his mother was born Ellen Doris MILLS in 1919 in the Hammersmith area of London. She married Henry DAVIS in 1944 and died on 29th November 1949 in Hammersmith Hospital, giving birth to their son Barry Henry DAVIS. Barry has not been able to find out where his mother was buried, and we have contacted the local churchyards / cemeteries in the Hammersmith area, but to no avail. Her death was registered in the Hammersmith district in the December quarter of 1949. Does anyone have any ideas about how we could find her burial record, as this is very important to him? Also, does anyone know of this family, who were living in Hammersmith Grove at the time of Ellen's death? I'm sure there must be aunties / uncles, or at the very least cousins, who might wish to make contact with Barry. Any help would be much appreciated.
