Mary Ann Venton orn circa 1886. Married Harold Dunace in Launceston Cornwall. At least 1 child called Samuel. I would like to know if Mary had any siblings and her parents names. If anyone has any info i would really apprectiate the help. Thank you. Lynette

If you buy her marriage cert for £7 from GRO you would have her fathers name and occupation which would ensure you followed the correct line. When did she marry?

This looks like her birth cert - you can buy that and get both parents full names and the address of her birth:

Fantastic thank you very much Heather and Maureen. I have been looking for her for months now. Mary would have been my G Gran. Lynette

And Kezia is your GGMx2.

If you buy their marriage cert you will find your GGPx3.

If you have been looking for months you may think it worthwhile to take out a sub to ancestry.co.uk - it is what we all use and is worth its weight in gold - I cant see how anyone can do this research without a sub.

Freebmd is where I found the marriage and birth by the way - its free to search.
