Hmmm...I looked up a couple of other people from the same roll with a Y annotation and they were both registered for birth in the first half of 1941. Also, at the start of the Ward it states, "Y printed before a name indicates that the Elector will be entitled to vote only at Elections held after 1st October 1962."

So, that works for the other people! My lady must have been 19 on the first day of Q4 of 1962. Maybe it's not her or maybe she lied about her age? I wish certificates were £1.50 rather than wills!

Kate, goodness knows! This family are all over the place. Some change their names, possibly to avoid the authorities/court/army etc, several cohabit with people they are not married to, often whilst married to someone else living nearby and when they have children the mothers just use any of the previous surnames they have used in the past for mmn! And every important event seems to happen just the wrong side of a date when information gathered might help. If the 1911 census had been taken in 1912 or 1914, the 1939 register in 1940, 1941 or 1943 and/or the marriage of this young lady had taken place a bit later I could be laughing!

I don't know if the 1943 birth is a late registration etc (it doesn't look like a re-reg). The parents were not married (as far as I can see) and there are no other births with the same surname and mmn. The father isn't on the 1939 register (army?) and I don't know who the mother is, except for her potential maiden surname (common).
