thanks brenda
just finnished searching 1881, 1891, 1901 cencus
and i can not find any menstion of an elizabeth johnston born 1880
in coventry warwickshire, so there is a good chance there has been an error on the records, its worth a try,
my next job now is to trace her death,
i must first trace all elizabeth hill marridges on or after 1926, as she appeared on staveley hills death cert as widow, i suppose she may have
allso moved from the area.
this is where it gets hard, no cencus to fall back on,
best wishes

You will need to order as written and I believe that both the register and the certifiate will most likely say Johnston. Bearing in mind that many of our ancestors couldn't read or write, it would have made little difference to them.

John Report 5 Apr 2009 23:31

hello again brenda
was going to start with that one,
if the name johnston is on the register, will that mean the certificate will be johnston, or could it just be the register that is wrong or both.
best wishes

Thats some job you're taking on! Didn't Tracey say that she would look up that birth for you when she went to wherever it was she said she was going to......sorry, having a bit of a blank mind. Me, I would pay out for the certificate and take the risk. Lots of luck is wished for you!

Ps

She is the only Elizabeth Johnson/Johnston born in Coventry 1879 - 1881.....just checked on freebmd.

BIRTH

hi brenda
i have checked out that image for george hill
and i think your right volume xvi 350 not 330,
i have also made a list of all elizabeth johnson and johnston
born between 1880 and 1882, and i will search through, the cencus's tomorrow and try to eliminate them, have you
got any tips that might help me, this is the only idea that springs to my mind.
anyway thanks a lot for all your help, its been fantastic,
best wishes
