Hi Steph Sorry, it did get a bit confusing didn't it. Pam seemed so sure that Mabel was born 1st quarter 1893 that I thought she must have the cert but if she hasn't I would go for the Oct-Dec 1893 in Cardiff Ref 11a 315. As you say, that would fit in with the death you found. She is just Mabel as well and most of the others have a second name. Chrissie Off to bed now

Thanks again guys and gals for all your help, yes she is Mabel Jane Howells and I sent for her birth certificate today, I am also waiting for the two certificates the death of William A and also for Gwendoline Robinson who was the informant on Florence Howells death , I am hoping that I will get the two certificates in the morning before I go away for a few days and I should get Mabel's sometime next week.

I really appresciate all your help I have hurt my neck and so find it difficult to look at a computor screen for a long time, hopefully a visit to the doctor in the morning after more x rays should help put it right.

Have a good holiday

Again thanks you super people

Hi everyone, just got back for a few days R&R and two of the certificates have arrived, William A is William Arthur Howells and not William Albert so not the right one, the one for Gwendoline Irene Robinson, gives her address still as 169 Newport Rd Cardiff ( this is where she died) a retired school teacher her death was registered by Phillip John Tom who lived 17 Cowbridge rd East Cardiff , I have looked at some details for him and found he died 2002 it gave is DOB so I looked that up thinking that he may have a Howells connection that way but cant seem to see one in that direction, I looked up Phillip Tom on here and found three people who have put him down as a relative and so have mailed them all, I am also going to try and get into the central library in Cardiff and look through the newspapers and see what the obituaries say,

Will let you know if I manage to get in there today
