Beatrice Marshall was great grandmother and born in Durham as far as we know in aroung 1865. Her daughter my grandmother was either Lena Mary Nichols or Selina Mary Nichols born in Durham in 1903. Selina married Joseph Gillis.

Thank you

Do you know what year she married or the year any of her children were born and I will check what name she married under on Ancestry. Irene

I'm not sure when she was married, but her children are Lawrence Gillis b 1928, Beatrice Gillis b c 1930 and Noel Gillis b c1938(I think).

Thank you very much Irene.
