Hi Laura I know that Florries maiden name was Parsons, they got married in Aston, Birmingham. Possibly from 1890-1900. This is the only info I have. My Grandad was born in 1914 and I don't know whether he had brothers or sisters, but there is a William and a Florrie on the 1901 census with no children. Liz

Hi Laura Could you look for a Jane Elizabeth Beard on 1871/1891 census, and a marriage for her. I can't see her on familysearch census of 1881 she was born 1861 possibly Hackney London who married someone with the surname of Fisk She died in June 1904 age 43...I don't have any further information I'm afraid Thanks Sandra x

Hi Anita, what might be 1891? This is a possible birth, area not a match but you werent sure so worth a try. DOWNING, Edith Elizabeth Record Type: Births Quarter: June Year: 1874 District: Falmouth County: Cornwall Volume: 5c Page: 199 The best thing to do is get her marriage certificate to get her fathers name and her age. You will then find her birth much easier to trace xx

Hi, this may be the birth Births Sep 1901 Thomas William George Birmingham 6d 46 If you order the certificate, that will give his parents names. Cant search for him or his family on any census without their names and he wasnt born! Good luck, Laura x
