Janet - Can you stay online for a bit as we need your feedback if we are to get somewhere??

Thanks,

Dea x

so sorry Dea I haven't been able to stay on line very long due to a serious family illness.. hopefully I will have more time later today
Many thanks Jan

Sorry to hear that Janet - but you are here now.

Yes, you had lots of uncles and aunts and you would have had more but sadly many didn't survive.

They did in fact have a total of 14 children (not counting any who may have been born after 1911 census ??). By that time 8 of them had died and only 6 survived.

OOh - looks like a couple more...

Births Sep 1911
Rowley Reginald Hine Coventry 6d 1012


Births Sep 1917
Rowley William H Hine Coventry 6d 1203

Good morning Dea... could you please explain to me why there are 4 people i.e. Hine Caroline Coventry 6d 571 Rowley Walter ... I understand they married >> but the next 2 people have the same number 6d 571 ??
Many thanks Jan x

Hi Janet,

The reference number is for the 'volume no and page' in the Parish Register and there is more than one marriage entered on the same page. (Two to the page is usual)

The other couple's marriage was entered on the same page and so has the same reference number.

Dea x

Oh right thank you ...dumb me lol
Jan x

Your not dumb Jan - we all have to learn these things !

Dea x

Hi Dea, not sure if I am doing this in the right place now?
My question is< why can't I find b/cert that you have given me dates for from the 1911 census?
Regards Jan x

Which birth cert are you looking for Janet? - I will talk you through it!

Dea x

Annie Rowley 1901
Queenie Rowley 1909
I have looked all through them years but I can't find them>>do I need new glasses lol

Sorry for stepping in.

Possible for Queenie.

Births Sep 1909 (>99%)
ROWLEY Clarence Queenie Coventry 6d 518

Maybe Annie

Births Mar 1901 (>99%)
Rowley Harriet Annie Coventry 6d 546
Births Mar 1902 (>99%)
Rowley Annie Elizabeth Coventry 6d 528

Christine

O.K. - I will go and sort them out and come back to you.

Dea x

Christine has posted some 'possibles' (thank you)

Harriet Annie is not the one as she is on 1911 daughter of Mary Ann + William.

BUT - this is a possible:

Births Mar 1902
Rowley Annie Elizabeth Coventry 6d 528

I cannot find a Clarence on 1911 so Christine's 'Clarence Queenie' may well be the one (perhaps she should be 'Clarice' or something similar?

You need this site to find them:

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

and you need to widen your search slightly as a late 1901 birth, for example, could be registered early 1902.

Edit:

OOOhhh 'naughty Christine'! - you keep adding more info onto your post above!

slap wrists! (tee hee!

Dea x

Oh I never gave that a thought Dea... must say I only looked up to Dec.1901
thank you Jan x

I always search a year or two either side, just in case!

And if looking for an 'Annie' for example, I usually use a wild card on first name in case she was an 'Ann' or 'Anne' - e.g. Ann*
