It sounds as though you're using GR...............not the best place for research.

If you'd care to give more info about Edward, someone will help you.........

Are you aware of.........................

http://www.freebmd.org.uk

It has England/Wales BMD's from 1837 to approx mid-1950's

Most of us use Find My Past or Ancestry to search records. These are sites you have to pay an anual sub to

I guess the speed is down to experience.

If you want help with finding anything else just shout

I almost feel I shouldn't be asking for more help after you have all been so good in supplying me with so much information, but I am intriqued to know how you come back with all this data so quickly. I have spent the last three afternoons working on Edward England to try to get a lead but when I request to view it shows a person not in the right age group at death, or something similar, and I have wasted some more of my credits. It seems to cost a fortune. Am I doing something wrong, advice please. Regards Sheba.

Thank you everybody who contributed big or small, it certainly is a huge help. I see I have a lot to learn to get anywhere near perfect. I am very grateful for the leads you have all given me. Best wishes, Sheba.

brummiejan - so sorry I have mistakenly sent your reply as a report to the Genes team. I do apologise, you must think I am a dim wit. I don't know whether you can retrieve it, but I will re type it here: Henry England's residence was Green Lands, Colchester Road, Thorpe-le-Soken and occupation Builder. Richard Squires residence was Clissold, Main Road, Holland-on-Sea, and occupation Retired. Both addresses are in Essex. The two witnesses were L.W. Self and R. Squires. I do appreciate all your help, it all seems so easy when you come back so quickly with answers. Thanks to everyone. Sheba.
