Hi Sophie,
please can you advise what if any Birth records you have found for Kathleen ?. You don't mention her surname, is this because you're unsure ? Do you know whereabouts she was born, was it definitely within our general area ?. I presume you don't have a Birth Certificate as that would (hopefully?) show her true father.

I ask as I've extensively searched her birth on FreeBMD, FoD PRs, GlosBMD and LDS sites but without any luck as far as I can tell. I've searched her under surname Waters, Walters(a common variation) and Bick, also Cathleen as well as the much more likely Kathleen. I've searched all the above surnames only hence ALL firstnames as listed on FreeBMD for all UK births between 1913 - 1917, which I believe gives pretty good coverage for our areas. Yet I've still drawn a complete blank. No doubt she's there but ??. Could Kathleen have been her second name I wonder, so that would only show as a K on FreeBMD ?.

Sorry for being dim !

PS I haven't tried so hard but I cannot find her marriage, have you found an online record for this beyond her certificate ? There are a few possibles on FreeBMD both in Gloucester/Cheltenham area (Bicks particularly there) and a few Waters/Walters in Ross/Gloucester area. I ask as I'm trying to be certain as to her precise first name or names, to then search her corresponding birth record.

Thanks !
