Find Ancestors

Sorry Margaret, I just cannot find Florence. I have tried going through 1837online for 1887 and the first half of 1889 and there is no sign of her birth even there. Regards Ann

Hi margaret, Am trying again for you, but please bear in mind that whoever took the census may have spelt it incorrectly as Darby or even durby. Ages weren't always correct either, and middle names were not always taken down. SO I am looking at the 13/14 year old Florences. Regards Ann

Hi Anne..I have her marriage cert for her second marriage to my grandfather so shes using her married name.Fathers name looks like Derby.Definately born 1887/1888 as she died in 1950 age 63.Her marriage in 1920 says she is 32 so its got to be 1887/1888.Are there any Florence May Derbys anywhere apart from beimg born in Derby just in case my mother was mistaken.My mother always used to say gran was a Derby from Derby.Can you check both 1891&1901 thanks if its not too much

Hi James, Figured this would be quicker on 1837, and it was found them both straight away on 1 page, which I found really sad :( There is an Albert Morrow there, but his number is given as 60675, think this is a possible? The ref for him is I.54 390 William is shown number 65351 ref I.41 240 They are both shown as Privates (PTE) I am saving the image as you would like it as you may need the regiment etc to order a cert (if it is possible) Please message me with your email so I can send it to you Regards Ann

Ann, Could you find GRO refs for 2 relatives that died in WW1. Both died in France serving with Yorkshire regiments A.Marrow No 60765 d.25/10/1918 William Marrow No.65351 d.25/9/1918 Thanks, Jim

Thankyou Anne

Frances, I tried searching and there was no Peter Anthony Hughes to be found, under Peter Hughes there were none in Edmonton. I tried searching under Ivor and none of those seemed to tie in with a Peter Hughes either, Sorry :( Ann
