Bernard Hammond

Married John Emms in 1902 Guildford, surname then was Harris.

Possibly died unmarried in 1973 Kingston-upon-Thames with birth date given as 4th Jan 1903.

According to the attached obituary of her son, Bob, Violet moved to Worthing in 1935 after the death of her husband. The 1939 register confirms this, but unfortunately two co-occupants of the household are hidden because they could be alive to protect their privacy. One of them, presumably, was Bob Hammond.

Death index from 1990 Nottingham confirms exact date of birth, the same as on 1939 register. The probate record image attached confirms actual death date.

“Rosalind ... read Social Science at the University College of Hull, where she met her husband-to-be, Robert Hammond. She worked as a Child Care Officer in London, married in 1953, and after living in Hoddesdon, Hemel Hempstead and Basildon, settled in Keyworth, near Nottingham. Robert taught Geography at Trent Polytechnic (now Nottingham Trent University) and Rosalind taught in a primary school for thirteen years. Their main interests in retirement, apart from travelling the world, are research into local history and promoting social justice - particularly in relation to Third World Countries - through Oxfam and similar institutions. Rosalind died of cancer in March 2000.”
