Theres no marriage and I cant find Julia either. Maybe Julia was born to her mothers maiden name

What other info do you have on Mary...her maiden name would help

The details about Julia Gibbard were found on her marriage certificate in preston 1941 to a man called Armer .She was there due to the war .on Julia's marriage certificate she say's her father was a Robert Gibbard .
And Mary ,we can't find her maiden name or where she was born .On her younger son's birth certificate ( his name was James Gibbard born 1902 ) it say's mother's maiden name was Gibbard .but no father's on James's this birth certificate .The reason I know this much is because James 1902 was my husband's grandfather .
I hope your not confused .

Your not the only one who is confused .Julia 's marriage certificate say's her father was ROBERT Gibbard .Her eldest son John Gibbard say's on his marriage certificate that his father was a John Gibbard .and James 's birth certificate say's no father's name at all .

Kay Report 11 Nov 2010 19:09

As I said I have James birth certificate because he was my husband's grandfather .And suprisingly his grandfather knew nothing about his mother's maiden name or even his own father's name .

If the mother is Mary Gibbard on the birth cert she was unmarried. Have you got an address?

Was Robert named as father on Julia's birth certificate or just her marriage?
What names appear for mother Mary ?
