How do i delete them please ?

GR has been playing up all afternoon!

Joanie, you appear to have posted 4 times - a glitch with GR I expect. Use this thread to continue on and delete the other 3 perhaps so folks don't repeat research if they don't notice.

Yes, a glitch. My reply posted twice and I get the error message when trying to delete one.

The 'closed' record will be one of the children you say you 'can't find'

I thought I had asked for some help a few years ago about this part of the family, but could not find a thread to continue on it, still struggling for marriage so I can get cert.

I am looking for the marriage for :William Smith born 26/07/1895. And Lillian Smith nee Heslop b. 16/07/1899. I found these dates on the 1939 Register they were living at 3 Joseph Place Rochdale Lancashire , livng with their youngest daughter Theresa Smith.,b. 04//03/1938 ?….Two of their other children James . b.12/03/1926 Morpeth Northumberland (the eldest ) and David b. 08/03/1932 Barnsley Yorkshire, on the 1939 register were staying with Fred Davies at Old Shop Ellesmere Shropshire. I could not find the other two Peter Smith b. 20/03/1930 Barnsley Yorkshire and Margaret E Smith B. 02/04/1937 Chorley Lancashire…
I did find a marriage : Elizabeth E Heslop Sept 1925 Sunderland 10a 1262 to a William H Smith, dates would fit, got the cert but not them.….My aunt said he had lost a leg at some point not sure about it though.

Lillian Smith died early 1940’s we know the children ended up in a Children’s Home in Lancaster., we tried to get records but they said they were lost in a fire years ago.

Thanks Folks for any help the name William Smith is so common aaarrrr…..Joanie
