Louisa, I've sent you the images of those two marriage certificates. Let me know if you get them ok or I'll try again.

RootGatherer - yes thank you so very much I have received these documents. I know they have got to be correct.

If any one can work out both William's (my Grandfather) and Samuel (My Great Grandfather) occupations I would be most grateful.

One thing that I found very touching was seeing Samuel & Lily's handwriting on their marriage cert...

So the next thing will be to get a hold of William Frith death certificate then?

I do feel quite sad that my William my real granddad didn't die till 1984, Our family could have had time getting to know him or even for my dad... to know that his dad did care about him and did love him and his sister would have been wonderful to know that before he died would have been peaceful & happiness but I understand he would have had his own second family around him.

I can't thank you all enough for your help.

A copy of William's death certificate may lead you to his second family via the informant.

I think that tracing back from Samuel Andrew Frith may prove tricky as there isn't an obvious census entry for him with a father William occupation Brewer.

Thank you RootGather I will make that my next job! :)

My mother has asked me to find her relatives ... ?? they are Swiss... I don't think I've got time to go back to work ;))
Well these searches have certainly kept me busy these passed couple weeks (I've been off work after surgery ) so thank you all, I think I'm going to have to stay a member of GR too!!!
