Hi everyone can i just say a huge thank you to everyone for the help im over whelmed. I have a certificate of marriage between my grand father Henry Cross and my grandmother Doris Blackburn dated 09.08 1924.all there is for my grandfathers father is James Harrison Cross and that he was a labourer.Unfortunatly i dont have Annie Langhams maiden name sorry. Annie and James Langham went on to have 8 other children that i know of.thanks again

Whose marriage cert do you have in 1924?, is it Henry Cross or your grandmother.

But wasnt Henrys father James Harrison not Anthony?

Hi Angela,I got a little mixed up with my initial statement matter of the typing going faster than the brain.the child born of J.H.Cross and Annie Langham was my grand father Henry cross who was born on 13.01.1898.Its James Harrison cross that im stuck with.thanks for trying to help me.jude.

It's still confusing, do this family belong to you?

Also where was your grandfather born it may help if you know where there were living when your grandfather was conceived

Hi Judith
Do you know anything about your grandmothers brothers or sisters - this could help trace them on the census returns

Angela

im sorry knew i should have waited until I'd woken up properly.Annie langham(her married name) was my great grandmother she was the one who went with James Harrison Cross and eventually came to bear my grandfather whos name was HENRY CROSS.Thank you.jude

I'm a little confused, was it your gran Annie or your grandfather ? that was James' child? Is Langham your grans maiden name or married?

please could some kind person help me im stuck.Im trying to find my gr.grandfather on my mothers side.All the info i have to go on is his name JAMES HARRISON CROSS and that he was a labourer in the lancashire area at the time my grandmothers marriage in 1924.Ive tried going on the census but to no avail.It also does not help as my grandfather was born out of wedlock.My grandmothers name was Annie Langham dob 1873-1955.I dont know if anyone can shed a light on it for me, but im stumped.Thank you very much for at least looking if nothing else.jude
