Hi Tracy I'm trying to find out about my grandfather's marriages. He was born in MAWDESLEY, Lancashire in 1844 and according to Grave Records fom PARBOLD, Lancashire, was married to Mary (?nee Foster) born 1853, Died 28/7/1882 aged 29 yrs. His next marriage was to Alice (? nee) born 1848, Died 1918 Aged 70 yrs and also buried in the same grave in Parbold. Researching Ancestry, I found another marriage between John Jackman and an Ellen MARTLAND solemnised on 10/9/1884. Was this another of my Grandfather's marriages? and what was the maiden name of Alice?. My Grandfather died in 1917 and is buried in the same grave in Parbold. My father was born in Parbold in 1888 and I knew he had a sister Polly who died young plus a half-sister Bessie and a half-brother Edward. Sorry it all sounds a bit confused Tracy but any help would be gratefully appreciated. With Best Regards, John Jackman

Hi Tracy, First of all do you have Berkshire 1841? Do you think you could look up a few marriages for me. The first is Frederick Aldridge b 1881 Reading & Eleanor Ann Ferris (nee Absolom) b 1884 Reading. They were married some time during WW1. The second is Robert William Ellis b 1889 Aberystwyth & Rose Alice Smith (nee Tegg) b 1890 Reading - possibly towards the end of WW1 The third is Rose Alice Tegg(as above) & Arthur Smith Thanks for your time Jane in Sweden

Hi Tracy! I'm trying to find my great grandfather William Berkeley Blake born about 1875/1876. I've found him on 1901 census which states he was born in Liverpool(profession receiver L.N.W.R.). How correct that is I don't know. I have his marriage and death certificates(died 1906 aged 31 occupation as above). On his marriage certificate(1901) his father is William Blake (deceased) occupation engineer. On his son's(William Alfred Berkeley Blake- my grandfather) marriage certificate(1928) it states William Berkeley Blake was a ship's steward!Must be a mistake. Finding William Berkeley Blake's birth certificate has been a mystery to me since I started this family tree hobby and it is doing my head in so as you have offered I am going to share it with you !!!!!! Thanks Andrea. Also on 1891 census a John/James Ebbs, Elizabeth Ebbs and their daughter Eleanor Ann Ebbs aged 14 live in Mornington Street Liverpool. Does it say where John/James and Elizabeth were born? Thank you again.
