Assuming that the births were after 1911, the MMN will be recorded. Other than that, there's no easy way, other than to 'ration' your searching..........do it in 5-year blocks, taking a rest in between, and making a note of where you've got to each time you stop. Reg |

So, you're looking for children named Jackson, with MMN Clamp? Is that correct? If the two marriages were 1926 and 1939, you don't have many years to search............ Reg |
