MY great grandmothers name was christiana blackburn married to john blackburn they had 2 children as far as i know called william blackburn and elizabeth blackburn. John blackburn was born in 1869 in carlton, Christiana's maiden name was gouldthorp she was born in 1869 in stanley wrenthorpe. William blackburn was born in 1891 in leeds and elizabeth blackburn was born in 1889 is there any other information you need to help me. John blackburn died in 1906 in stanley royd hospital we have his records but there is no mention of a wife.

Have sent Malcolm a p.m asking him to reply on his thread if he wants help.

And if you really want to be a detective and try even harder you have to think 'outside the box' (god I hate that phrase but in Family History it really works)

Spelling - mistranscription happens all the time - so my Sell family have been found under Sell, Sall, Soll, Sale, Hell, Holl - well you get my gist.....

And often when searching less is more. So start out with just the first and surnames, year of birth =/- 5 years and place of birth,

With my Sells, I had murderd on one census, but I knew where they had been living in the previous census, so I put in the name of the youngest child on the last census I found them on and the place of birth, up they popped in another part of the country listed as Loll.......

If you really need further help, do as Gwyn says and post some details on here and there are many on here who thoroughly enjoy searching for those 'lost' ancestors.

Good luck :-D

Who do we look for...........
Post some names and details Malcolm.
I'm sure several of us will help to look for them.
