Thanks AG - I am glad to know it wasn't just me then as I have now found the marriage in there too and I couldn't find anything at all the other day.

As you say, it must have been a fault with the site.

Dea -
I got no results at all for a Robert Rodgers marriage when I tried on that site a couple of days ago - but today several show up!
Maybe there was a temporary glitch.

Well, isn't that just 'strange'....... - that is the site I was trying to find things on but didn't find any results !!! :-S

I do seem to have entered via a different home page than you though so I will go in via your one and have a little practice.

Many thanks,

Back later,

Dea - What records I've found come from

Greyghost - Could you tell me which site you are using for Belfast BMD details please?

Thanks,

Yes Dea it was My husband was born in Belfast but his family moved to Earby about 1957/59 and William came with them and was buried there too Nellie x

Now that confused me as I couldn't find William's death but then I realised that although Earby is now in Lancashire, at the time of his death it was actually classed as being in the West Riding of Yorkshire so this will be his death:

Deaths Dec 1961
RODGERS William J 61 Staincliffe 2d 379

Hi Nellie,

I do think it is looking likely that we have the right one but we need to find some proof.

Are you able to give us some details on your husband's aunt who is connected to this family?

As she is still living you may not want to put her details on here but you can send them by private message if you wish (by clicking on my name) and the details will not appear on the thread.

We may just be able to link her up to the one we have found?

Or, if you give her the info we have posted she may recognise something to help?

Thanks,

Dea x

Oh My goodness you have both done Amazing with this I am over the moon with what you,s have found and I appreciate it very much . Nellie
