Unfortunately when I clicked the purchase with credits it doesn't reveal who her mother was which probably means I will have to purchase her actual birth certificate from the GRO.

On the search facility on this site there are two results for Mary F Fleming but this one seems the most likely-

That's really helpful thank you with their dates of birth I should be able to locate their birth certificates and then their mother's names.

Thank you.

Hiya all, i've been putting together a 5 generation family tree, 2 parents, 4 grandparents, 8 great grandparents, 16 great great grandparents.

Finally just have two more people to find and its done.

I have this marriage license for my great grandparents-

Richard Henry Nelson who married Mary Frances Fleming in 1928 (3rd Nov).

Richard aged 33
Mary aged 34

The marriage license says they were married in Stockton-on-Tees in the County of Durham.

Richard's father is John Nelson
Mary's father is James Fleming

What it doesn't reveal is the mothers of Richard & Mary. I'd like to know who Richard & Mary's mothers were to complete my 5 generation family tree.


I figure these would be listed on the birth certificates of Richard & Mary but these are proving elusive to locate.

Can you help?
