Thank you.
I realise her birth should be Middlesbrough . However where does the Sigley come in?

looks like this couple had William Robinson born Middlesborough 1917 and Kathleen 1920. Do these names fit the family tree. Irene

Thank you Glitter Baby. I had not seen that. It looks a possibility.

Alfred Sigley Burns is the one I would love to find on any census in Scotland. Its such a pity they usually put Scotland with no area of birth
