The death that you found in 1928 keeps popping up for me too, have you thought about ordering the cetificate just to make sure one way or the other?

I will continue to look at later dates.

Regards

Donna.

I wonder if you can help? I am looking for Theresa Kelly d.o.b 16.9.1938 she was a Roman Catholic her address at the time was 213 Camden Rd N.W 1 & 45 Brecknock Rd N.W 5, she gave up my mum Rose and her sister Kathleen who are twins up in 1961. I have discovered that she had a older son called Michael Kelly who i think was born in 1960 who was living with Theresa's Aunt who was called Mrs. Dowdell which i believe were living at 14 Edinbourgh Ave, Doncaster at the time. Theresa's grand Mother called Mrs.Blake lived at 77 Moore Park Rd S.W 6 at this time as well. We believe there father is called Wilfred Martin but have no other record of him other then that he was a U.C.H Porter or a U.C.H Chef. They were born in Queen Marys Maternity Home, Health Rd N.W 3

Her family would love to get in contact with her

Can you help?

Hi Donna,
re my Faulkner's
Thank you so much,
yes this is defiantly her,i know all the children's married names
I see she has kept her first name as Bethany but has changed her birth place again!
Looks to me that it depended on who she had living with her at the time as to where she was born.
I think i will defiantly have to order that cert,perhaps my father in law is mistaken
many thanks again and your doing a great job (x)

I think that's probably best as I have discarded a lot of records cos Grandma said she was 10 when Gt Grandad died but she was 15 it turned out!!

And Great Aunt Annie insisted that she was 21 when she was bridesmaid for 'this vital wedding that I had been searching for forever' . So I discarded all other possibilities for a long time, then eventually gave in and ordered a cert that matched everything but Aunt Annie's word and it was correct, Aunt Annie was wrong by 6 years!!

Relatives can be a wonderful source of information but sometimes if nothing else matches what they say - go with gut instinct!!

Let me know if it's the right certificate.

Good Luck.

Best Wishes

Donna

Will do Donna,
and thanks for all the help

Thanks

Donna

When I checked her name it is Beatrice Fido.

I looked for children and found the following :

Page Number: 930

Do you know what sort of year Charles Griffin was born and where at all as it may narrow things down?

There is the option of ordering the marriage certificate of Charles and Beatrice - it will state Charles's age, job and residence as well as his father's name - same with Beatrice.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Hey you're not stupid, sometimes everything gets on top of you and everything is whirring round your head at such a speed that it's sometimes the straightforward things that do not come to you immediately.

Please do let me know how you get on with the certificate.

Best Wishes

Donna xx

You are definitely not a timewaster, just someone who needed help with information that eventually came to light.

I am glad that you know where to aim now and I wish you all the luck in the world with your search.

Please feel free to keep me posted on how you are doing.

Kind Regards

Thanks Donna, you are very sweet, I wish you luck too with your look ups offer, don't get too bogged down. lol

I might have to get back to you at some point with my Jones as I do know that they were living in Liverpool in 1911.

***Katie***

Hello, thanks for your post,

A few questions for you :

Do you know your nan's surname before she married your grandad David?

Are they your mum's parents or your dad's?

Would either of your parent's be able to give you some more information about them?

Do you know where they are from or where they lived?

Do you know what children your grandparents had?


If you know some of the answers to these it may help narrow the search down and make them easier to find.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Regards

Donna.

I searched for Conjellus for a marriage (as his name is so unusual and the only Conjellus in the 1911!) and death but I do wonder if they went back to Scotland.

Hope this information is useful.

Best wishes

Donna xx

Hi Donna,
Thank you very much for the 1911, as you say Conjellus is a very unusual name, but it does run through the family, I will go back to Scotlands People to have a look for them there.

Best wishes as always

Hello Donna,

First of all I would like to say how nice it is of you to offer your services for "Look-ups".

I'm trying to find the marriage for Phyllis Serkner born 1925. She also had sisters Barbara born 1931, Beryl born 1938 and a brother Mark who must have been born later and who doesn't appear on FreeBMD. I should imagine that perhaps one of them would have marr. in the 1950's.

A marriage for just one of the above names, whoever shows up first would help greatly with my research, if and when you have a spare moment to look my request up.

Thank you so much.
