i have looked on censuses for Cornelius Thompson the 1901 says he was widowed, herbert is already on there along with a Harry so maybe that was Midge, and a younger sister Clara but maybe she died before Alice came along?? It's all very confusing but i knew it would be after all my living family is just as complicated i think it is genetic!! lol... Sorry Alice was born in 1908 it was George that was born in 1902.

Deaths: BERESFORD, ALICE ELIZABETH Birth: 31 March 1908 EREWASH Death: 1998 June District No 3961A Reg No 6C Ent No 273 Dor 698 Is this YOUR Alice Beresford ? It's the only result showing between 1996 - 1999

If Alice married George in November 1928 she would be listed in the Dec qtr 1928. The ONLY Alice Hampson marrying in Dec 1928 is to a Jones in Leigh, Lancashire............ Have checked March qtr 1929 .... there are two Alice Hampson's marrying: 1 = Nicholson 2 = Lillywhite ------------------- Births: March 1902 Alice Hampson b Wigan Alice Hampson b Ashton BOTH in Lancashire June 1902 Alice Alexandra Hampson b Barton Irwell - again Lancashire

'scuse me but where does George Beresford come into it ? (daughter - got it !) and how can she be 90 when she died ?? lol ! Elaine ;-) Just to clarify: Lillian Hampson married Cornelius Thompson but her daughter was named Alice Hampson and her son was Clarence Hampson Obviously Lillian married Cornelius AFTER her children were born then ? yes ? Alice Hampson married George Beresford ..... Elaine ;-)

Alice Hampson married George Beresford on 3rd Nov 1928. Alice was born 31st march 1902 and died 31st May 1998 aged 90 years. Thanks x

When was Alice born and when did she die please ? When did Alice marry ? and who did she marry? Elaine ;-)

You need firstly to find the marriage and obtain the cert. It will tell you her age at the time, plus the name of her father. What is the source of your info about her maiden surname? Start with what you know for sure.................you have the names of the children; when and where was each of the born? Particularly Alice, as she is your direct antecedent............. Reg

Un fortunately i don't have any dates thats why i am having problems , i don't know what to do , i am quite new to this.

When did she die - might help narrow down date for her birth Was Hampson her maiden name?

When did she marry? Reg

Thanks Vicky, I am searching for my gggrandma she was born in Coalville, around 1880 we think, her name was Lillian Hampson, i have searched on google and Ancestry for her but can't find her. When she was young she ran away from home with her brother because her father was very strict, apparently he was a lay preacher. She later then married Cornelius Thompson and they had 5 children. Herbert, Midge (nickname don't know real one), Alice, (my ggran), David ( died as a young boy from flu epidemic in 1920s), and Clarence ( Cladge), who carried his mothers surname don't know why. Thanks again Donna

Donna, If you can be a more specific about what you want you might have more luck. I believe a lot of archives are held at Leicester. (Sorry I don't live anywhere near so can't help)

Does anyone live in Coalville, Leics and willing to help me pretty please !!!
