Julian,
I am currently doing my Family Tree and have connections with RADDON and OXBOROUGH both on my mother's side. My Great Aunt Lilian married Charles OXBOROUGH and lived in Wood Green - they had daughters Phyllis, Dorothy, Connie and William(Bill). Lillian was a Raddon and had 9 or ten brothers and sisters - any help? There may be connections in Hertfordshire, Essex and Devon/Cornwall.

Hi Julian

You need to put your Mum's maiden name on the tree.Also you can order the certs on line
http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/
the information that you need is what i have given with the district volume no and page no and Quarter that they were born in.
Good luck.Have a great xmas.

Hi Julian

I would order one of the certs to find out the parents names as i can't find a Fellenor on the 1901 census.There are only a couple of Fellenor births two in Bristol 1900 ,1901 then Elsie then one in 1924

Hi Sue,
Fellenor is the correct spelling.I came accoss a card in a box mum had and it was to do with a service in memory of Elsie May Fellenor.I cant seam to find it again but i think the year of her passing was 1935.You have been wonderfull because i have spent hours trying to search the records for a Elsie May Fellenor.it might be her sister but not certain at this time.Beatrice Louise was born in Cardiff West Glamorgan on January 1st 1906.I have a look again for the card but might have lost it when i had sold the house and moved last year.Julian

Hi Julian

If you notice the surname it is spelt differently so think you should order this cert as can not find another FELLENOFELLERR on census's or births.

Maybe this is the sister

I thought he was from another generation.Elisa Oxborough may have been my dad's father sister.My dad did mention that his father had a sister.Thankyou for all your help again.Think time to sleep and follow on later.
