My uncle, Spencer Jon Norman Warren was born in Somerset in Febuary 1923. He was a handsome man, a good man that his family loved dearly. He found and married his sweetheart, and I am told her name was Isabelle Strict, she was a cornish woman and I was given this and I am not sure if it is a address or not but she lived with her parents at paulgigga porthcurno, Cornwall.
They were only married a short time as my uncle was in the London Rifle Brigade in WW2 and while serving was killed (September 16, 1944) He & his young wife lived with my nan and pop. I am not sure as to their side as I was very young when they died, but according to my Aunt the family and this young family did not get along well. When my uncle left his young bride went back to her family at Cornwall and no contact was kept. For this I am very sad.
I would like to know more about this woman. Did she have a child with my uncle. Did she have a good life and find someone to love her as my uncle did? I would like to find her but as the name Strickt is second hand I do not even know if that is right. My grandmother was very close to my uncle but had already came to Canada as a war bride, does not even remember my uncle being married so I cannot ask her. I dont know if it was kept from her for a reason or not? She is dying and I know she would love to know exactly what she has missed. My mother says my grammy shut it out because she wanted to be there but was not.
How do I find out. I have looked for a phone directory for cornwall. I cannot find one. I need to know and soon, but with little resource it is hard. Thanks for any help you can give me.
(Admin says) A good start would be to leave some contact details |
