I think the fee is for an address, not a surname, so you need to be fairly sure on that. Someone posted a thread recently saying that her family had moved away, so she had spent £45 finding out about a different family., - not her's. Gwyn

If the family stayed in one area after Edith's birth, it might be worth checking for baptisms of children with the same parents. Also, if you know where Edith went to school, log books might show other children likely to be her siblings. Gwyn

yes 1911 would be for her siblings but if cant wait you can pay now to see records dont know how much it is though

This is fantastic stuff......Edith May was born in Frithville. We know thats correct Its the Brothers and sisters but I presume we have to wait for the 1911?

Thanks for info............Harriet was born in Welney, we do have info from this side of family but anything on Allen side would be good

Hi Elizabeth I may have found your Allen folk on 1901 but need to know a possible location.Do you know where they lived and where Edith may was born??? Well done girls that was the one I have found,but a bit cautious in giving details prematurely,just in case. Fritville is in Boston Reg District,so looks like the birth in Boston Mary
