And Hilda can't be Connie's sister if her surname is Oxborough.

Think I need a drink.

Rose

Julian i hate to tell you this, but your father was not born in 1935... nor 1936 or 1934....

I'm still looking now

Here are some other Leonards:

Births Mar 1898
Oxborough Leonard George Burnley 8e 282

Births Jun 1910
OXBOROUGH Leonard Leicester 7a 191

Births Dec 1910
OXBOROUGH Leonard W Yarmouth 4b 26

Rose

He also has his grandparents being born 15 years before his mother in 1928.

Rose

Wayne,

I know but Julian's listed those birth details for her.

He says "Connie Oxborough maiden Tablot. my grandmother
Born 1913
Her mother's maiden name is Rodden.my grandmother first name is Constance but she wanted to be called Connie.Her birth was registered at Edmonton"


Rose

Rose she wouldn't have been born an Oxborough...she married one?

EDIT... i have just reread Julian's comments... i think he has gotten a little adrift! i'll take a look for the births...

If Connie's maiden name was Talbot then this isn't her birth:

Births Dec 1913
Oxborough Constance Raddon Edmonton 3a 965

Well your Irish roots might ring true... Ormskirk is in Lancashire... a popular route for Irish folk into England... it's a very northern name for England... and yes Irish by decent.

I cannot be sure that is your Cornelius... he was the only one i found which seemed relevant...

As anyone here will tell you... you need to buy certs to be sure.!!

I'll take a gander at Hilda... do you have any dates for her?

Wayne you came up with my mum's dad Cornelius McVey born 1897 in Ormskirk(Not sure where this place is lol) But over the moon you found the year my mum's dad was born.My mum was born with the name Dorothy McVey.Sounds like or maybe my mum's dad was Irish as McVey is a Irish name and was told that i was part Irish.Not certain what year her dad passed.

Hilda Oxborough My Aunt i am interested to find out more about.I was told she was a sister to connie.

you appear to have alot of information already... what exactly would you like to know from all that?

If you are wanting to go as far back as the census records you will need certs to ensure you have the correct parentage of the people you have details for. This will also give you names and dates for going further back and ensuring you take the correct route through the Census reports.

Just a small note.... Records have your Great Grandmothers (Leonard's mum) maiden name as Eggleton...not Aggleton

Where does Hilda Oxborough fit into all this? Is she Leonards Sister or Daughter?

OK Julian,

What do you have so far?

You need to help us as much as you can initially... So Connie Oxborough and Leonard Oxborough are your paternal Grandparents.... do you have any dates for these and locations?

Do you have the names of your Mothers parents? and dates to go with that and locations?

Her parent's names will be on her birth cert. If you don't have it you will need a copy from the GRO.

Thanks Claire my grandparents are Connie Oxborough and Lenonard Oxborough from my dads side.Now need to sort out my grandparents from my mum's side.That will be tough lol.

Oh Julian if onlt life was that easy!

First you need your parents birth certs to find out your grandparent's names.
From there you find your grandparents marriage. get a copy of that, find their birth, get copy birth certs & so on.
GR will only show you other members with the same names in their trees it does not give you information although if you are stcuk, other members will try to help you.

Hi Wayne
I wanted to find out about the birth and deaths of my dads and Mums relations and not certain how to retrive those details from using genes reunited.I want to find out the birth date and the year of death of my grandparents to start with.I used the options on here but nothing has come up.My grandmother was called Connie Oxborough and my grandfather was called Leonard Oxborough'

Julian,

If you have all you need, what exactly is it you require from us?

Thanks Fran.
Have all the details i needed to start off the tracing process.

the best thing is to get there birth certs it will have there parents names on them and were they lived. its a start in tracing them back good luck.
