ETHEL BAKER formerly ASKEW

[Janey Fisher]

Hello there!

I am searching for my paternal grandmother. Her name is ETHEL BAKER, formerly ASKEW.

On the register she is ETHEL ASKEW

BC is attached for information

I am trying to find out which is her maiden name, if at all and any further marriages or children

My father was born in Wanstead. Possibly a mother and baby home. Her home address is Hermm Gdns, Ilford
TIA
Jane

When she gave birth her name was Ethel Baker. Her former name eg maiden name was Askew

Appears to me that maiden name was Askew, she either changed her name or married a Baker and then had a child to Fisher.

Askew is down as her maiden name on freebmd.

Just to be clear
It was Bootzy, it was George that emigrated or Ethel?

 

[gibbo]

Have you checked for Ethel Baker on the 1939 register? Not sure if it will tell you anything else but worth a try.

Jane - it was George who emigrated to WA with 2nd wife Dorothy

On birth cert for Charles in 1944 – father is a RSM (Army service no 14332 of R.A.S.C – Office of 4 PJB?) - so search of Army records....

a possible - there is a marriage for a John E Fisher to Ethel M Baker in March qtr 1952 – Watford Vol 4b page 659

Baker children on Freebdm
Leonard Baker March qtr 1941 – Thorne Vol 9c page 1897 – mm = Askew
Charles John Baker Sept qtr 1944 – Essex SW Vol 4a page 202 – mm = Askew – Also listed under Fisher

There’s a possible Baker, mothers maiden name Askew, birth registration in Liverpool. I haven’t posted details as they may still be alive.
