The Mary I was looking for was maiden name Keen born in middlesborough, the death doesn't match Marys details but Mary Keen fits exact same birthday with the details I had.

Look again and you will find there was a mary born 07, December 1913 in middlesborough and they are exact details I was given by her son and they match a tree from her family.

Jade -
I don't know where you're getting your information about Mary Keen , but it's not correct.

Which site has the tree you mention? It's not on GR or Ancestry, as far as I can see.


If you look on FreeBMD, you will see that there were only two Mary Keens born in Middlesbrough in all the years between 1875 and 1968.
Neither of them was born anywhere near 1913.

Births Jun 1895
Keen Mary Ann U Middlesbro' 9d 594

(That one's mmn was Cane, per GRO site.)


Births Jun 1924
Keen Mary A (mmn Byrne) Middlesbro' 9d 1060

My apologies for putting in keen that was a typing error but fact remains , if you use births deaths and marriages site : mary ann Ackroyd was born in middlesborough on 07 December 1913 .

9D . 1088 are the references. :-D

Mary Ann Ackroyd's birth has been posted already on this thread.

I can see you have put her on your tree on GR.

But -
She is only one of many girls named Mary whose births were registered in Middlesbrough in the last quarter of 1913 or first quarter of 1914 (list posted by ErikaH on page 1) .
Any of them might have been born on 7/12/1913, but nobody can know that without further evidence, such as a copy of the birth cert.

However, Alviegal posted what is probably that child's death - copied here again.

ACKROYD, MARY ANN 0
GRO Reference: 1914 J Quarter in MIDDLESBROUGH Volume 09D Page 739

When you say " births deaths and marriages site" - exactly which site is that, please? Can you post a link to it?
If you mean FreeBMD - that only shows you the quarter in which the birth was registered - not the actual DOB.

That child DIED

Look at ALL the info people have posted for you

And please explain precisely where you think the actual DoB is recorded other than on the birth certificate
