I have found some children from a marriage but believe there were several more.

Can someone tell me please is there a way of finding out all the children from a marriage.

Regards

Depends on what years the births were. Is it at a time that would be on a census or is it in the 1900's?

Hi Kath

I have found the ones between 1911 and 1923

Its between 1923-1950.

I do know there were several more but there mother may not have been at her home address when she gave birth.

Thats why I was wondering is there a way of finding out all the children born from a marriage.

Hi Laura

This is what I have been doing and have come to the conclusion even though the parents lived in the same area most of there married lives not all there children were born in that area.

Thankyou for replying

If a woman was giving birth in 1911......it's hardly likely that she would still have been doing so in 1950

Even assuming she was as young as 16 in 1911, she would have been 55 in 1950...............
