Hello Everyone,
I have a Ellen Donnison who married William Griffin in 1888.
They had six children.
In the 1891 census she is listed as being born in Newcastle upon Tyne aged 23.
I have hunted for her in the birth records and census's but can not find her.
The only one I can find was born in Hull in1865 do not know if it is her.
I would like to know who her parents were can any one help. If I send for a marraige certificate it will take six weeks to get to me.
Any information would be welcome .
Regards Beryl
