ok you have a choice of three so keep these untill you have your nans birth certificate to confirm her mums name

1)

grace bowden to thomas m ford
greewich 1924 1st quarter 1d 1032

maude bowden to walter e ford
west ham 1923 3rd quarter 4a 9

elizabeth m bowden to charles e ford
bristol 1919 3rd quarter 6a 564

was your nan one of the youngest?

the problem with that one is it took place 11 years before your nan was born so keep all the details and when your nans birth cert comes and then your know her name.

my nana and grandad came and lived in sunderland but got married in dorset, so keep all of them untill you know for sure once you know give me a shout and i will look some more for you

if you do normal post about 10-14 days but you can pay extra to have them in a couple of days (about £28 i think) so if your not rich try doing another part of the tree untill they come
