Hi There, I have just recieved my great grandmother,s birth certificate. Elsie May Smith, born 1903 Pershore, Worcestershire. Her father was Samuel Smith (Agricultural labourer) and Elizabeth (formerly Carter). I am trying to find them in 1901. Can anyone help please? Thank you Regards Richard

You need to look for the marriage.......it will probably be on freebmd. The marriage cert will tell you the ages of Samuel and Elizabeth, and the names of their fathers, which will help with finding them in censuses. Looking for them without at least knowing how old they were would be virtually impossible. Reg
