Please can someone look up Annie Wilson (nee Gray) on the 1901 census. She was born in Gainsborough, Lincs in 1872. I believe her husbands name is Thomas Wilson but I don't know anything about him. Thank you for your help. Jane

Hi GlitterBaby Thank you so much for your help I have a possibly marriage for Annie Gray and I was just trying to check it out against the 1901 census. However it turns out I must have it wrong because I can't find the marriage on FreeBMD for Sept quart1891 in Gainsborough. I wonder where I got that fname and date from. All the best Jane

Thanks Maureen I thought I was going mad. How did you manage to find that marriage? I will write down that 1901 census info you have given me and will check it out later when I can afford to buy some more certs. It seems likely to be her as her age is about right and place of birth is right. thanks again for all your help. Jane
