Could this be her on the 1891 census - I have also searched under Rosetta Brownlee, Brownlees and Brownlie and also under her mother and father's names for the other census' but can find nothing at the moment (but I willl keep looking as they may have transcribed their names wrong).

Unfortunately i will have to wait until i have purchased marriage certificate as he didn't marry until 1914, which won't help you and i don't know his parents names. Thank you anyway and i may be back in touch.

Kind regards

Danielle,

There are over 300 John Bradley's !!! - do you have any other information - ie., father, mother or, if he was married, his wife's name.

thanks, Paula

Julie, just give one office a call and they will help you out - if it's not them, then they will point you in the right direction.

However, they are always extremely busy so if you just say you are making a courtesy call and you require a copy of a birth cert and explain what you are doing - this should put the ball in their court and hopefully they will help.

Thanks, Paula

Thanks, Paula

Hello

If possible, could you please check Scotland 1881 and 1891 Census ( I have them in 1901 already) for a Rosetta Brownlee and household (possibly spelt Brownlees or Brownlie) born Ireland c1868/69.

Would expect her to be with parents Robert and Sarah, but thought it might be easier to search under the more unusual name of Rosetta.

Thanks.

Looking for information on John Bradley on 1901 census if possible please born around 1883 in lancashire. Any help very much appreciated.

Kind regards

Danielle

Thanks Paula, do I need to call the one that covered chipping norton and then the one that covered prescot or will the oxfordshire one know both ?
Julie

Julie,

It didn't become compulsory until September 1911 for the mother's maiden name to be inserted upon the birth index. so unless you actually obtain a copy of the certificate, then you will not be able to check the mother's names.

To save money, if you can call your local registry office if you can find out the reference as they only charge £7.50 for a copy of a Certificate. If you only know the National Ref (the GRO), then if you are very lucky and polite to the other person on the end of the phone at the registry office, they may look up their records and send you a certificate out.

Thanks, Paula

Ken,

I've also looked for any baptism records for the children and again there is nothing recorded.

regards, Paula

Hi
Is there anyway of finding out who the parents or even one of the parents for either agnes born apr 1899 chipping norton) or agnes born april 1904 (prescot) by the surname of dore please.

thanks
Julie

Kenneth, I've looked at the IGI and there are no records. As they are before 1837, you will have to try and see if the local parish (if you know it) have any records in existence - alternatively, they may be able to give you the best advice on where to go if they do exist.

Thanks, Paula

Hi Paula
When all else fails ring mum, be back soon thankyou Rose. sorry Paula he was born June 1929 in Derbyshire.

Regards Rose

Rose,

Unfortunately, there is nothing coming up for Lewis Ball c1927 in Derbyshire. Any other ideas?

I'm wondering if my GGGGranddad John Richardson 1785 and Margaret ? 1790, both from Berwick on Tweed area, were married (to each other).Their offspring comprised Sarah, John, Peter, Catherine, William, George, James and Margaret; all born in Spittal on Tweed so I'd like to make an honest couple of them. Confirmation would be much appreciated. Kenn

Hi Paula
I'am looking for the birth of my uncle Lewis Ball c1927 mothers maiden name Lakin, i think this would be Derbyshire.

Thankyou Rose

Please let me have as much information as you can.

regards, Paula
