Betsy Marie Allcock
Betsy Marie Allcock was born in Settle, Yorkshire 26 Dec. 1913
I have her father as Unknown Allcock amd mother as Unknown Pickford but can't, for the life of me, get any further. She went on to marry Leslie Sharratt in 1941 and died in Wirral 21 Oct 2007. She was a close relative and I'd really like to be able to research more of her ancestry if anyone can offer any help. Unfortunately my subscription to FMP has expired and I'm presently not in a position to renew.

Besty was a wardmaid in a hospital in 1939, so not with her parents. (Her dob given as 26 Dec 1914 probably a reflection of the way the question was asked)

A John Allcock married an Ann Pickford in Settle..... in the September quarter 1939. Could this to be ensure her an old age pension?

I think your next move should be to order a copy of her birth certificate from the GRO, John. Also her marriage certificate.

I knew she had been at a hospital there but thought it was as a patient.

Also you could contact your local library service to find out whether they are offering free access to Findmypast or Ancestry from home during lockdown? But I do think you will need the birth and marriage certificates, which are unlikely to be on either of those sites anyway. You would be able to view the 1939 Register entry on either of those sites though.

This is the address in 1939, John:
Wallasey Cottage Hospital Claremount Road, Wallasey (btw, I totally agree with Kite - and it would be interesting to see whether the father's details are identical on both certificates.)

What exactly do you mean by that? Do you think maybe they weren't married at the time of Betsy's birth (seema a long time to wait though 16 years)? Not sure what you mean about a pension.
