1939 Register (Household):
29 Sep 1939 (age 39)
Sutton, Surrey10
Address: 3A Ross Road
The initial entry shows the household consisting of George, his wife Mary and their adopted daughter Bridget (known as Pat). Bridget married Leonard Field in 1943 and the register was amended to show her married name. The entry for Mary has been crossed through and annotated 'see Page 24'. Mary does not appear on Page 24. However, most of the page is redacted with the records officially closed which means the people are still alive and Mary may have inadvertently disappeared under the redactions. It is possible that Page 24 recorded a young persons residential home, perhaps a school, and Mary worked there.
The redacted entry is believed to be for George and Mary's son George Alfred Kennard.
