      The birth and death of an Angela Gotham was registered in the first quarter of 1953. The mother's maiden name is recorded in the index as Kelly, but I have not found a Gotham = Kelly marriage, and suspect that there is a mistake in the index and it should read Skelly, i.e. that Angela was a daughter of this couple.
