Winifred is recorded in 1939 with her FIRST husband Richard JOHNSON. I've since found a copy of their marriage certificate and added it to Winifred's profile.

In the 1939 register George (age 23), Fitter & Assembler Ticker Issuing Machines, was the head of household at 29, Wembley, Middlesex, England.^[4]
