Find Ancestors

Hello, can any one see if they can find a marriage or the parents of either James Collins born 1909 in Bristol and Edith Dark born 1909 Bristol. Any info would be greatly appreciated. I have searched and searched Ancestry and now need another pair of eyes. Thanks

Edith Dark Year of Registration: 1909 Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar DISTRICT: Bristol County: Avon, Gloucestershire Volume: 6a Page: 167 (click to see others on page) the records dont start showing mothers maiden name until half way through 1911.

way to many collin marriages to go through without some idea of at least one first name. any idea on names? if not then im afraid its the gro for the birth cert

James Collins Year of Registration: 1909 Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec DISTRICT: Bristol County: Avon, Gloucestershire Volume: 6a Page: 21 (click to see others

Many Thanks for your help...gone blind

happens to the best of us, glad to help

I have rang around some family and managed to find out that Edith Dark father was William James Dark born abt 1883. He married a Bessie Ormson born abt 1884. Can any look at the 1901 census and see if they can find William or Bessie. We think they were both born in Bristol (came under Gloucestershire)? If not I will have to order certs. Many Thanks Marcelle
