Hi Danny,

I have been working on this but am just not finding anything useful for you at the moment :-(

Having grandchildren quite a lot at the moment because of family illness but will have a further look tomorrow.

Do you have any other info at all on Robert ??

P.S. - You have given your new little son a lovely name! :-D

Thanks a million guys. I would like to think I have been a very supportive husband but Dea yes of course the hard work was done by my wonderful wife. Am I allowed to tell you his name on the forum?

Well wouldn't ya know it I went in to register his birth today and I got 2 certs in the post also.

Its amazing how much more detail there is on a cert these days and ironic that we probably won't need as much in the future.

I was wondering could anyone help me with a problem. I have met a complete block at one great grandparent. Robert Cartmell married to Elizabeth McCarthy ( I will try to send you the marraige cert ) the Mar Cert is from 1920 and it states that Roberts Dad was named George and that he was deceased.

I have recieved 1 birth cert for robert going pretty much on that it was the only date that matched. As the marraige was in Nov 1920 I thikn that means if he was 29 then that he would be born between Nov 1890 and Nov 1891. Therefore I sent off for it but the fathers name on the cert is Thomas which does not match.

The Vol 08e and the Page 726 for the 'incorrect' cert.

If anyone can shed any light on this I would be very grateful.

Thanks for the help as always.

Hope ye are all keeping well.

Hi All

Sorry I have been away for so long but I have been busy with another addition to the family tree as my wife and I had a little boy but I have lots of knew info and certs to share with you all I will post soon.

Thank you all very much for the help I had noticed the cornwall connection but it all seemed a bit random to me. I have been dealing in Lancashire alone for so long now.

I did think Annie Wheeler was from warwickshire but her dads name was charles, I wonder is there a chance Edward was a second name or charles was maybe.

I will scan the cert in for you to see.

In 1871 census the above family are in Birkenhead and the wife of Edward is listed as Ann, which ties in with this marriage, if Edward Wheeler married Ann Rowe:

Hi All

I have got a fair distance with my Kirkham family now. I am onto my great great grandparents marraige cert now.

I am having a bit of troube tracking down my Great Grandmas details.

Her name is Annie Wheeler and she married Richard Kirkham.

The Marraoge cert says her dads name is Edward Wheeler.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Regards

Danny
