I have a look at all that in formation but in the 1911 census it says that Ada gave birth to 4 children 3 living and 1 died as Stanley died in 1914 I believe there was another child who has died

Moira Report 1 Sep 2019 11:34

the family had May Morris born 1907
Clara Selina Morris born 1908
Stanley Martin Morris born 1911
Walter Wentworth born 1915
so there was another baby born before the 1911 census and died before Stanley in 1911

Ada Annie dies in 1952

If the mother is not on the birth reg. until 1911 how would I know which is the correct child and where could I find this info. please

Moira

Moira Report 1 Sep 2019 12:29

I can see that William Henry 1909 could be the child but also Ada born 1910 could be, do I need to order a birth cert for both children

Ada 1910 is NOT connected

You've been given ALL the info about the births and hers doesn't have the correct MMN

https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/Login.asp

The above site gives mothers maiden name prior to 1911, it is free to use but you have to register. That is where we found the mmn of both William Henry, and also Ada - her mmn was not Neale.

That site is also the cheapest for ordering certificates.

greyghost Report 1 Sep 2019 12:36

Try using this site Moira - https://www.gro.gov.uk - it's free to use but you register

It gives the Mother's maiden name from start of registration in 1837 up to 1918 (100 year rule) and age at death from 1837 - 1957 (50 year rule)

You can order a pdf copy of a certificate through the site for the years mentioned for £7, other certificates are £11

If no mmn shows - it usually means an illegitimate birth

This is how results appear - so Stanley Martin Morris mmn Neale born Q1 1911 Aston RD - Vol 6D Pg 188
