thanks glitter baby..........the reference allows me to get a proper copy now...........thanks everybody for all your help

Sorry but no luck with 1901 Maureen

thanks for that glitter baby............close that Lukes and Patching........!!...........lol..............no wonder i cant find things sometimes...........I wonder where margaret is in 1901??????

desperate to find her now in 1901 its so frustrating

I cant believe that she married before 1901........??.......but is she listed under an incorrect surname???......where is she hiding

Hi Maureen, I've tried running a search under surname only with place names/birth details but it will not run a search without a surname..........so frustrating

Did try a search on National Archives but no results. You might just be unlucky and she got missed off the 1901 for what ever reason. Maureen

I am trying to go through possible name variations, just in case I get lucky with a mis-spelt name..........thanks for your help Maureen
