mmn only shows from Q3 1911 onwards (although they appear to be attempting to go further back)

the same birth looks like this from another free site https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro

You will need to register with the site but then it's free to use. A bit clunky as you have to select year and then can only go 2 years either side of that at a time and also do male and female separately. Useful that it gives full first names.

There are possibly a number of other Price /Richards marriages in the area, so some of the births may not all be the same family

Doris’s birth is on freebmd in 1914.

Start with what you know - your husband’s birth - and work back from that, carefully checking every piece of info

OR..as you say 100% re Phyllis use her as a base

Her birth is on freebmd with MMN RICHARDS - so look for siblings’ births and parents’ marriage

You can’t usefully search censuses until you have accurate BMD info

Any of Phyllis's siblings born pre-1911 should be looked-for on the GRO site, which includes MMN

Hello everyone,

At the end of last year I set myself the rather arduous task of mapping my husband's family tree alongside my own. Little did I know how illusive they would be!

So I have a swath of pictures of the Price family (my husbands great-grandmothers family), and I know they lived around the Knighton/Radnorshire area for much of the children's lives, and potentially also Herefordshire.

So this is what I know so far:

Head: William H Price (I think - aboyt 60% certainty)
Wife: Possibly Louise (maybe 20% certainty)
Children:
- Phyllis R (b. 1912 d.1999) (100%)
- William (b. 1922) (90%)
- Jim (possibly John(?)) (b. around 1900) (70%)
- Doris (b. around 1914) (70%)
- Bert (possibly albert or herbet?)
- Hector

There also may have been a Gwen and Edna in the household as well (brought up as siblings...)

What I'm really hoping to find out is the following:
-Definite name, birth and death of Head
-Definite name, birth and death of wife
-Definite name and birth of Bert and Hector

I've been looking at census records but really struggling to find anything concrete even though at least 2 of the children should have been born by 1911.

Any help would be much appreciated.
