Find Ancestors

I'll not spoil your fun Dea, but on the 1881 census the son Samuel was born America, can't find him after that.

I know she only neecds to get the cert Reggie but there isn't much on the site nowadays to 'get your teeth into' ;-) :-D

Have to go now but will get back onto it later.

Dea Xxx

P.S. Reggie - don't spoil my fun and find out everything before I get back ;-) :-D :-D

Dea Xxx

Dea, it's well nigh impossible to do address searches now on FMP. Have spoken to their support team and they have admitted that the functionality has been lost but they will not be able to reinstate it as it was (or not in the near future).

No wonder I couldn't find anything on freebmd for Stanley Joseph Mckay!!!!!

BUT.......all Jean needs to do to get the answer to her actual question is to get a birth cert

I have a 'feeling' that the baby was a child of this family:

I think it would be worth following James McKay Edmonds back a little way?

12 children born - 6 have died.....

Dea x

HOW ON EARTH does one do an address search on either FMP or Ancestry now they have changed the searches ? :-| :-| :-| :-| :-|

Can anyone help please with looking for the baby's address - 26 Aiken St, Warrington before and after his death in 1897 ??

Start by looking for a possible marriage..............

Either on Scotlands people...............or, if the marriage could have been in England, on freebmd

Or get a copy of the birth cert of whichever of her children was your grandparent............
