hmmmn, i think we had better wait now, not unless you buy marys Bcert as well, just to check that she does belong to same parents. lol tracey, oh how lovely.. I was like that with my first.. not wanting to know, i was convinced it was a boy, (but really wanted a girl) when baby was born couldnt believe it..... a girl!! was dead chuffed (i didnt find out either) second child the same, but thought was a girl.....wrong.... BOY 3rd, well i was having none of it this time round, I asked LOL and it was a girl.. she is now 17wks old, If it'd been a boy i'dve died!! lol, but am not bothered one way or other, IF i have anymore i'd like another boy, so my 2 3/4yr old has a baby bro as well as baby sis

Can't believe the 'dirt' on this family. My father is quite amused by it all. Thank you all so much for your help! Now looking into his first marriage!

I'm trying to find the 1st wife of James Henry Amer and have the 2 I found on BMD. Apart from purchasing his wedding certificate, is there any other way of confirming who he married? I will buy the wed cert, but wanted to close all other options first. Ta

Thanks for this. It seems as if they are on the 1901 census as someone emailed me to let me know!!! The reason I couldn'f find anything was as I was looking under Maragaret Donaghy and they obviously called her Catherine! What a family I have!!!
