me again... Just looked at the original hand written census and I am reading it as Kezia sorry not kenia

oopps Kenia was born in Badworth Yorkshire... Could her name have been put on the census wrong as my mother is certain her name was Kezia>>

Thanks Margaret, thanks everyone... here goes I will ask you for help on this one then will take it from there.. This is what I have found out so far... My great grandfather Ernest Jagger born 1868 organist wakefield west yorkshire, married Kenia (my mum always said she was kezia but Kenia came up on the 1901 census! Dont know her maiden name can't find it anywhere she was older than him! born 1866 they had one son my grandfather Charles G Jagger born 1900 my granny Ruth Phillips born c1905 can't find much on her either..I appreciate all your help but feel i am cheating a bit! Thanks Ginny

Well said Margaret ...and SO true!

Some professional researchers will charge you £25 (and some!) for a BMD cert....we all know they cost £7 at the most!

I would suggest, Ginny, before you buy any credits use all of the freebies first.
There's Free BMD, Familysearch, 1881 census which is free. Only after you've exhausted all of those should you consider spending your money. Even then it's not necessary, there are so many people here willing to do look-ups for you, and if I may say so, we do a better job than professional researchers.

Thanks so much... One O'clock in the morning (I am doing the moon walk tomrrow Ahhh!!..) I think it is a little late for tonight I will post any info that i have if you are sure that you dont mind.. many thanks be back in a moment.xxxx Ginny

Hello out there, i need some advice. I have brought my Credits (not sure after reading threads that i should have got from GR?? where else??.. When I look at birth records I just seem to get the name, page no etc, how can I read a proper record with parents names etc, dates I am looking for are around 1866. Also I have found some relations on the 1901 census and according to the ages of people that I have found , they should also be found on the previous census but none of them are why would this be. So far I have managed to find 3 part generations going back to 1865, it is so expensive is there an easier way.... Or any better sites where I can find certificates with full information. I am working from a small bit of information so am finding it very frustrating I don't want to give up already.... Thanks so much for your time with us novices. Ginny xx
