If it came to a vote I would say share these details , I think that after 70 years , its a reasonable time to show these reports without upsetting anyone . Some of these snippets might explain old family puzzles to any future family researcher .Not everyone can afford subscriptions to this material . I have many old family photos of one of my Mums uncles and always in the photo was a Mrs Fozzard or "Aunty Flo" . I think she was a girlfriend to Uncle but apart from that haven't a clue or even what happened to Mr Fozzard . Uncle went off to America with another lady and never really heard of again and it might be such an article that could provide the info . ________________________________ From: Nivard Ovington <ovington.one@gmail.com> To: nottsgen@rootsweb.com Sent: Sunday, September 1, 2013 6:26 PM Subject: Re: [NTT] Divorces 1943 Hi Brian Call me old fashioned (and I know one who would) but I do not think these should be posted in full to the list I know they are in the public domain, and I know the people involved are unlikely to still be around but their children and or grandchildren might be and may not very happy having this in the archives Its not a matter of privacy, they are available to anyone who takes the time to seek them out but to me a matter of thought for those around today A list of names re divorce cases would IMHO be sufficient Just my opinion of course Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 01/09/2013 16:11, Brian Binns wrote: > I am doing some research via Newspapers on-line – through Find my Past – and > when I come across an interesting story/report I will publish it here. > > This report is from the Nottingham Evening Post July 5th 1943 and is about > divorce cases at Nottingham Assizes.

This is our secondary email and I have just been trawling through over 100 emails - many genealogical. In my own research I have come across various illegitimate children - perhaps the most amusing that my father-in-law - a lovely man but so very proper, was born in Ledbury (which he knew) but only 4 months after his parents marriage in 1901 (which he did not. They all lived in Wolverhampton, and the young couple returned home after a safe time lag and some two children later! I came across the most complicated cover up in 1937/9 where initially it seemed baby Barbara was born to her parents when mother was almost 50. I delved deeply and ordered a few certificates. Barbara's "parents" George P. and Dorothy had divorced before 1927 when Dorothy remarried a William, Both her surnames were on this second marriage certificate. Barbara's "father" George was about to remarry in 1942. The baby was registered in the first quarter of 1938 in Liverpool and then the newly delivered 16 year old Margaret was dragged away to Tangier with her mother who was using her correct 2nd married name. returned from Brisbane in February 1939 and and went again to Tangier in August 1939. >From her birth cert Barbara wa actually born on 8 Dec 1937 in Everton and registered late 4 March 1838 and her father was given as John P a teenage sweet shop assistant. No such person exists! The real George P was an engineer and although none were still alive both Margaret's grandfathers were doctors. Others relatives were parsons. Her extended family lived at the time in Manchester and Coventry. My belief is that the choice of Liverpool was that is was near enough for access but out of the way for discretion and that the sea trips were to get her out of the way, possibly to visit distant cousins - in both senses! - while her figure recovered and that her mother used her old marriage certificate as cover up. I believe the second visit was probably to seal an adoption. Barbara would now be 75. Margaret married in an elegant ceremony in Westminster in 1946, had 3 children, the last in 1953 but died soon after.
