Hi Jax
Many thanks dear.. i actually had to giggle at the couple of names mentioned..Francis Beer Tapp.... and Robert Batter Bird..lol.. poor things if that was their real names.
Is there any way you can find out if the children of George W Randall and Louie May Lobb themselves had any children.
Many thanks again
Kirsty

It says here that elizabeth.. william J lobbs mother was born in 1863.. but william was born in 1873.. does that mean that she was 10 years old when she had him?

Where born: Bodmin, Cornwall, England

jax Report 30 Aug 2010 23:27

where have you got william born 1873 from? he was born 1882 as per michaels post and 1911 says 1884 but census can be out a year or two also the 1891 census I gave you says he was born 1882

On her marriage cert she say her name is Elizabella not finding a birth in that name at the moment or Isabella

The name Lobb seems to be a cornish name though

The only way of finding out more about her is to purchase the marriage cert to john Roberts then at least it should have her fathers name and occupation as long as she had one that is

purchasing her birth certificate would be hard as am in Algeria.. but thanks for the hint anyway.
