Right then, so back to my trail!

Get the marriage certificate that I posted on the first page. If that is the right one then she cannot have been born as late as you think

Come back when you have it

You need the birth certificate to check this is her

Gee Report 3 Aug 2010 12:35

So that marriage that you said was correct cant be. She would only be 12yrs old in 1922

Gwyneth

Gwyneth Report 3 Aug 2010 12:33

My brother has said that Myfanwy's mother was definatley Elizabeth and her husband was Peter.

Gwyneth

Gwyneth Report 3 Aug 2010 12:24

Thank you so much for all your help.

I had to chat to my brother in australia to see what information he had. Hence the delay. He belives Myfanwy was born in 1910. She was living in Bala, but actually died in Wrexham hospital early 1980's
thank you for everything

Flick Report 3 Aug 2010 10:13

The info Ginny has posted is looking increasingly likely to be correct...............a 1922 marriage would be more feasible for someone born c1898, rather than 1906

Also, the family story about her mother marrying twice would be a way of explaining why her birth wasn't registered in the surname under which she married

Do you know when/where she died?

1911 Census

At this point we dont know who her mother is. Flick has found one possible and I have found another...Margaret

Start with that marriage cert. You'll get her age too

Come back when you have recieved it and we can go from there

You can order online from the GRO

Gwyneth Report 3 Aug 2010 09:25

How would I find out if Elizabeth (myfanwy's mother had been married twice?)not too sure where to look. (Ive only just started this family history, so am not too good on where to go)
