You are a star.

Perhaps she took the name Welfare as it sounded more interesting than Wood!!

I will organise the birth certificate and see what that comes up with

I think Ozibird has already solved the puzzle...

Sam You may have something the maiden name has been given by word of mouth and perhaps it is wrong.

I think I will try and obtain the large birth certificate of my grandfather I have the little one but of course it doesn't tell me much

Thankyou

~~~~ No I don't ~~~~~is answering which question?

No you don't what? Have the marriage cert or a birth cert of one of her children? Where have you had the name Welfare from?

But I can't find her in 1881 yet.

Ozi.
