Possible evacuee's on the 1939 register?

[Margaret in Burton]

I'm researching a friends family. A couple in Islington had two daughters aged 13 and 14 who aren't with them at the family home. I've found one of them in Luton with a family that doesn't seem to be related. The other could be there too as there is a closed record under her. In the right column for her and another girl is says B25. Could this signal an evacuee?

I should think it's possible; according to Wikipedia the civilian evacuations began on 1/9/39, and the 1939 Register was taken on 29/9/39.

My grandparents had evacuees in 1939. However, there are no notations in the end column for either of them. There is a B26 noted against one of the neighbours; I don't know what that indicates but he's definitely a son of the occupiers.

I have asked on the FMP Facebook page but had no answer as yet.

I don't think they usually do much on there at the weekend, Marg.

Still haven’t had a reply. They perhaps don’t know.

Hadn't thought of evacuees. Probably explains why there are some of my ancestral children in random unknown families miles away from their parents.
