Find Ancestors

i now have birth cert for 4 of the children williams edwards amelias and ellens they all have the same father and mother amelia ellen turner the only problem i have now is i still can not find the last 3 children i put in name dates and mum and dads names but they dont come up still how ever i did find out the head of this family was the local mid wife so there is a chance she did not bore all 7 children if that is the case would any know how i go about finding how these children come to be part of this family

i have got the birth cert for amelia annie jacobs born 1906 london and on her cert it say father alfred william jacobs born 1872 london and mother amelia ellen turner born 1874 london i am still waiting on williams and edwards but i think it will be the same as amelias. i still can not work out why on all the census for this family say amelia hicks but on cert she is turner

i think there is some thing very funny going on with this family . there is so many people no one knew about

Sorry, I was confusing the two children so you are probably quite correct about Edward being Edward James.

Apologies,

Dea x

what names have u found for edward please

hi dea
we think he could be there son as michelle told me who she married & i found that marriage & discovered he had a middle name so went onto see if any edwards were born in that area at that time as they were living in st giles area on 1901 census & the birth reg i found was the only one i found could would be a poosible match so told michelle that it maybe worth the cost of the money for the cert to find out if he is or he isn,t i,m lost now too lol

jacky

can u give me what you have found please

we dont know what family is what at the moment

I have got a little lost here as I have been working away in a different direction - I will post what I have found as soon as it makes sense.

Could I just ask - are you expecting this Edward James to be the son of the Alfred W + Amelia E that we have on census or have we decided that they are definately the wrong family, as he is not the son of those parents ?

Dea x

thank you all for your help i have a lot of cert to order lets hope it help

hi michelle
i think the next step is to order edward birth cert from the ref i have given you & see what it says then you will know for sure if were on the right track with the alfred & amelia

jacky
