Hi
Is there anyway of finding whether a couple had any children between 1904 and 1911.

I have both parent's names and other children born before and after those dates

It depends a lot on the surname. If they had a fairly rare name and stayed in the same area so that you can spot children from before 1901 and after 1911 you "might" be able to find a few, but otherwise, it's practically impossible!

Roll on 1911 census!

Hi Kirstie
You might be lucky if there is a regional birth marriage and death site for the area you are looking at. I found quite a few of mine on lancashirebmd.
Try it.
Best of luck, Joan

Just had another thought. Were there any strange family names that could have been passed down or used as a middle name ?
