It looks to me as though at least some of the children's births are under the surname BENJAMIN.

Hello

I was wondering if any there any willing experts out there who could help me

After a few months of doing what I thought was fairly well I think I've come up against my first major brick wall

I'm trying to find out the maiden name of my great great grandmother Catherine Amy b1856 in Southampton who was married to Alfred Taylor b1857 in Shadwell

I've tried to find a marriage for them and I've also tried to locate birth certificates for all 8 of their children to find her maiden name but had absolutely no joy at all

I've applied for birth certificates and they couldn't find them even though I have good dates for most and census for the family in 1901 and 1911 but that's it

The children are

Maude Adelaide Taylor my grt grandmother b 1888
Amy Louise b1876 St George East
Dennis Evelyn b Jan 1897 Shadwell
Hilda Mary b Dec 1896 Shadwell
Clifford b Apr 1895 Shadwell
Reginald b 1889 Shadwell
Earnest Charles b 1879 Shadwell
Philip Horace b 1877 Shadwell

I'm almost ready to give up so really hope someone out there has an idea or can help

Thanks so much in advance

Alex
