Hi Sarah

Just what definite information do you have on the family. There is a birth registration for Leslie Wragg a/m/j 1905 in Gateshead but as you already know the names of his father and mother, a copy of this certificate would not take you any further. If you know Harry was born in 1872, where was his birth registered. Could Elizabeth and Harry have got married in Wales? If so, the next best step would be to get a copy of this marriage certificate which would give the names of their fathers. You must have some verified information before you start trying to trace the families back. Let us have what definite information you have, then we can try to help further.

The way to check if the marriage is correct is to send off for the marriage certificate.
