Can anyone help me take my tree back further than my grandad's parents please?? Everything seems to lead to a dead end. My grandad was George Henry Reynolds b17/10/23, 4 Willow Walk, Farnborough, Kent. (He served in the army, so if anyone turns up anything on that, that would be great as I have no information on that either). |

thank you brummiejan...no I don't have 1911. I think it was mentioned that my grandad had two sisters, but no one knew much about them because of the age difference, so what you've found looks great, thank you. |

hi all, sorry if I've missed anyone....you're all replying faster than I can!! Just to add, the information I stated in first request I took from my Genes tree, which wasn't as up-to-date as I thought. I've just found the marriage cert for Thomas & Elizabeth. |

hi maureen, thank you for what you've found. can I just check with you as I'm very much a novice at this & easiyl get confused working backwards!! Ellen, according to what everyone else has found was Elizabeths mother (plus two siblings) but as it says she was a widow, would Robert not be listed as 'deceased' on birth cert rather than labourer, or is that not how it works? v interesting tho thank you again. |

Does it tell you if Robert is deceased on the marriage cert? |

lol maureen. Elizabeth's marriage cert has father Robert Tullett labourer. but on you census her mother was a widow by the time she was 3. but as you say, if you're asked your father's occupation, not if he's alive or dead, I suppose you just answer it! is it safe to assume it's still all the same family? it seems to make sense. |
