From what I have been told, Elsie English was born c1905, so she would have been roughly 6 years old in 1911.. I think she was probably born in Wales too, somewhere.. My geography is fairly bad!

Hi Zoe

To avoid the big mistake of guesswork you would need to order the marriage cert, you can then move backwards with some knowledge of accuracy!

Doesn't stop people from moving and marrying!!

Maybe the wife came from that way!

Maybe they used a registry office and not a church?

I have found a few family trees with an Elsie English born 9 Sep 1905 in New Tredegar, Monmouthshire, Wales

Obviously it is somebody else's tree and i can't be certain.. but it is in Wales!!

This is what we always say, order the cert and then you have something definate to go backwards with....

There is a danger of guesswork that gets you in a completely wrong direction.
