Hi Angela, sorry I thought you meant you had already got it.

Just clutching at straws with the above family really.

Hi Gail, I have only just sent for it as my aunt Ann said she had it but when she looked she did not. He was a Blacksmith though that I do know, but whether he was when my gran was born I do not know. My aunt is 78 and some of the information she gives me is a little confusing.

Hi Angela

Was there an address we can try and check out on the birth certificate - I know it is a while after the census but might be worth a shot.

What was Henry the father's occupation?

Thank you Gail and Reg, I have sent for the birth certificate for my grandmother as my aunt did not have it. I have also got her death certificate. I have my paternal grandfather her husbands family going back to the late 1600s but I am totally stuck with the
Sharpes. It is driving me mad.
