Hi Seaham Lass!

Thanks for your reply! Thanks for the marriage info - that's another certificate I probably need to order! i do have that census scan, and they are part of the family! I've spent (and wasted!) so much money over the last week buying credits for censuses!

Does anyone have any info about Mary Collins (nee Rooney)'s husband John Collins, b1849? She is now a widow so he must have died since the prev census.

Is it true that Eleanor Collins bDec 1912 (Manchester) died age 5 in a fire?

Also, did Mary Collins (b 1917) die pre-1927?

Hi I'm trying to trace information about eight siblings in my family tree.

The parents were David Collins (b1883-c1948) and Mary Ann Collins (b1884(c) - c1952, nee Ryan), they had eight children. Both parents and all children born in Manchester. The family lived in Ancoats, Manchester.

If anyone can help me find out any information on the following, I would be very grateful! I have birth years, but no specific birth dates, marriage dates or death dates: i know its a challenge!

Eleanor Collins bDec 1912 (born Manchester) according to family, she died age 5 in a fire?

Mary Collins (b 1917, Manchester) die pre-1927?

Triplets Annie, Margaret and Theresa Collins (b 1920, Manchester, birth certificate ref 8d, 789) - I have no idea what happened to them

Edward Collins (b1910-d1955, Manchester)

Robert Collins (1902-1976, Manchester) married a Catherine Scott?

John Collins (b1900, Manchester)

Any help you can give would be fab.

Thanks

Katie

Katie - after about 1901, info gets much harder to find, its not as easy to seach anyway.

I guess, althought the triplets are suposed to have died, they wont have died together I doubt, and Collins is a difficult name to hunt thru - there are hundreds of them!

You may find a subscription to Ancestry helpful

Perhaps you could get the birth of Eleanor, then you could get the address and maybe pay to have the 1911 cenus - it costs £45, but well worth it if you want to get some more concrete info instead of waiting till 2011.

Thanks Minnie, I will look at Ancestry now, I haven't been on that yet!

Am still hoping someone can help!

Thanks again

Katie

Triplets each have their own birth certificate so it costs £21.00 !!

I have some in my tree,I sent £7.00 with the 3 names,and got 1 certificate with "triplets" written allong the side!!

Bet

Hi Nicki

Thanks for that, I wasn't aware you could buy the 1911!

Bet - £7 each, what a con!

I was recommended to try 'FreeBMD' so I am going to Google that website now, hopefuly it will throw out some marriages or deaths for these eight!

Does anyone know if you can search local newspapers online? Was thinking that if Eleanor (Nellie) died in a fire, it may have been in a Manchester paper. In fact, I will try the Central Library...

1911 is done on the address not on surnames. You provide the address, they search it and provide info on who was living there at that time.

Library would more than likely do newspaper look up for you re fire and also for birth & deaths of twins.

Make sure you let us know how you get on.
