Apologies there!, I thought it was an 'unknown' from Australia, getting muddled I think.
Bet Cherilyn (Australian helper) on below would like to have a 'nosey' around also!, if you want to ask her, try on below, she might be able to delve further!)

I'm just utterly "gobsmacked". You've given me more information in an afternoon than I've managed to dig up over months . How do you DO that!!
The only down side to this is that I shall now have to order several more certificates !
My brain is totally scrambled now so I shall leave it for the moment. I am so, so grateful to you all for your amazing help. I shall be back! :-) :-)

You are seriously amazing at finding newspaper articles!!!
Prickles. ;o))

(more like I'm a nosey ol' devil!, lol)
Chris :)

Nosey or not.........you come up with great information.
;o)) x

Tigsmum have sent a message ( see messages at top of page) re something not directly connected to your search for Alice, that I came across, and as it involves a possibly living person thought it better to send privately.
|
|
Chris,
I agree entirely about your ability to find newspaper articles !!
You say you found Lilian E Burgess, born 1914, in the Cambridge Index but I can't find any record. What am I doing wrong !! If its a basic error I'm making it might explain why my research has been so laborious.
|
|
The result comes up with no problem for me, Tigsmum.
Just select birth record, then enter Burgess, and Lilian, and 1914, then click Search.
(Actually, no need to enter "Lilian".)

(the 2 Baptisms for Wisbech, St. Augustine come from 'Cambridgeshire Baptism Index cd', you then need to see that Parish Register for further details)
