That should give you the name of her parents, then you look for their marriage thereabouts or earlier, and apply for the marriage certificate which usually gives you their fathers' names. Then you go back about 20 years and start looking for their births and so on. Step by step it builds. You really do need to see the information in as close to the original as possible. You can't take everything you find on a website as gospel. People make mistakes. Good luck with it, Jim, Gosport.
