You won't have any chance of a birth cert if she was born before July 1837

It was the childrens birth certs that I was asking about.

Can you give the details from them

Flick

Flick Report 24 Mar 2010 22:11

Being recorded on a census as 'wife' is no proof of a marriage having taken place

When were the children born?

What were their names?

If you wish us to help you, it is important that you give us ALL the info - not just scraps.
