That birth looks correct as her death cert shows her born c 1898/9

Deaths Mar 1967
Horton Frances L M 68 Pontypridd 8b 635

So if he was older than her he must have been born pre 1898


Have you found his earlier marriage ?

IF THIS HELPS, MY GRAN WAS BORN IN 1938 AND I KNOW SHE HAD OLDER SIBLINGS THAT HER FATHER HAD IN A PREVIOUS MARRIAGE

Not that I know of.
The record you shared is one I've also seen.

Only thing I know is that my grans father was previously married, and was older than her mother. he had children in a previous marriage and then had my grandmother and her two brothers with what it seems to say is Frances Lily Maud Francis.

Of course, your gran wasn't necessarily born near her parents' birthplaces or marriage place!

Was Frances married before??

When and where was your gran born? (To give us an idea of timescale and area for her parents.)

I'm currently researching my Horton line.

I've received my grans birth certificate in which it states her parents names.. but I cant seem to find a marriage record for them? I know he was married previously too.

On my grans record it says her fathers name was David William Horton (But I have found a William David Horton born in 1906ish)

her mothers name is down as.... this is what it says..

Frances
Lily
Maud
Horton
Formerly Francis

Anybody able to help? it's confused me..as I cant even find a birth record for her.

Thanks in advance xx
