Johnathon I have looked again at the cert. of birth for william and yes you are correct it is Seaside Lane, Easington. the S and D are written quite similar. I have looked at the site for workhouses and will see were this takes me. |

Both parents had died by 1911. Could be she was in a workhouse. |

sorry K, that is correct, I have the death cert for Barbara which does not give her maiden name but does give her husband's name as R.T. Langlands, they both passed away 2 yrs apart and both in the same place. |

I wonder if this was her from 1911 |

I agree Johnathon, young but then again it could explain why she give him away. |

So the Genes member questions the marriage you found to Barbara Straughan not the family in 1901? |

This could be Isabella's (born 1906) marriage |

Johnathon | Report | 17 Apr 2009 17:58 |
She'd be very young but this could be her birth |

This is the family I matched with my Isabella, the mothers name is given as Barbara, I looked up the marriage for R.T langlands and Barbara and got a match Dec 1884 Easington. However the genes member has informed me that this barbara Straughan is incorrect. I dont really know how to resolve this at all |

I have tried to find without success any information with regards to a isabella langlands after 1920 or at the address given |

I preume this is the Isabella you originally investigated so her occupation will not appear in any census - Sorry crossed with you |

William Langlands was born 18 Sept 1920 1 Deaside Lane, Easington. |

Johnathon | Report | 17 Apr 2009 17:42 |
So that means she was unmarried & Langlands (at that time) was her surname & maiden name. |

I don't think there is a certain way of verfiying this except by doing as you are doing, working through the options, checking the census and eliminating those that don't fit. |

In the box marked, name, surname and maiden surname of mother all that is given is Isabella Langlands - domestic servant it also states that the informant to the birth was her landlord |

If i've read this right then only Isabella is named on the cert? If she is then Langlands is her maiden name. |
