My Goodness
I'm over the moon for Rosie and Lily. Vi died age 100 after marrying a seaman and living in Port Issac all her adult life, as always we should have asked these questions when she was alive. The girls have no other way of finding out about their Dad's family other than me

So thank you all so much

Use this site for births and deaths - gives you mmn from start of registration in 1837 (other sites only from Q3 1911 but to 2006 at best) through to 1918 and age at death from 1837 through to 1957 where freebmd and commercial sites start in mid 1860's.
If mmn missing, then normally indicates an illegitimate birth

Thanks all
Vi married John Richards, sorry forgot to put that in my request.

This is great her parents were Earnest Chapman and Ann Hopper married in Camelford, I can't wait for the girls to get back from School.

So I should be able to find other births on freebmd if I'm lucky and find J
