Could someone please look up a birth for a Frank Rendell His parents are Martha ( nee Ironside ) brn 1864 and George Rendell brn 1858, so I'm presuming Frank may have been brn in the 1880's If anyone could help it really would be appreciated.. Thanks so much Roz :-)

Have you tried looking on FreeBMD for it theres loads to choose from from 1877 onwards. You wont find the parents until you buy the cert as that info isnt part of the GRO Refs.

Only Martha Ironside marriage on FreeBMD is in Poole in 1885 but did not marry a Rendell. Ironside is a Scottish name Maureen

Roz .take alook on Freebmd. from 1875 onwards . you may find the one that looks like could be him. It means buying a cert to find if its the right one but you can specify a checking point of one of the parents names,and, if the one you order doesnt match up you will get a refund of £4.

Clutching at straws with this suggestion Marriages Mar 1885 (>99%) Bennett William Poole 5a 401 Ironside Martha Louisa Poole 5a 401 Smith Mary Elizabeth Poole 5a 401 Smith Octavius Harry Poole 5a 401 1901 ?? only because it is the same Registration district Name: Martha L Rendell Age: 37 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1864 Relation: Wife Spouse's Name: George Gender: Female Where born: Upway, Dorset, England Civil Parish: Longfleet Ecclesiastical parish: Longfleet St Mary County/Island: Dorset Country: England Street address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: Education: Employment status: View Image Registration district: Poole Sub-registration district: Poole ED, institution, or vessel: 10 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 255 Household Members: Name Age George Rendell 43 Somerset, clay pit labourer Martha L Rendell 37 Really strange this 1901 entry as the years of birth match your request

Thank You Glitter baby and sorry I took so long to reply, Im lost with them to, all I know is they came to Australia in 1911 I have found Martha's death but not George, I also found in some stuff that belonged to my GGrandmother a post card addressed to Mr and Mrs George Rendell and it starts with to Mother and Father and ends love Frank, so Im presuming they must have had a son who stayed in England Roz

Hi Anita, All I know is that the family came from Dorset so I presume he must have been born in Dorset.. Thanks for your help Roz
