You need to give a bit more info. Was your mother the eldest child? Who are the siblings. When/where were they born?

Just a thought, going off Kath's find, was Robert a serviceman in WW1, stationed in Cambridge? I had an aunt from Macclesfield married in Bedford during WW1 cos hubby was stationed there. He was also a Macclesfield man, but it is definitely the right couple for me.

Did they definitely marry in Wales? It's just that this is the only marriage on FreeBMD for an Annie L. Reynolds:-

Marriages Jun 1915
Reynolds Annie L - Jones - Cambridge 3b 1427

Spouse is Robert Jones (although no middle name given for Robert).

Not sure if this is their marriage or not.

I would start on your Mum's eldest sibling, when were they born? First child often appears in the 2 years of a marriage.

I have been trying to find out the DOB of both my grandfather ROBERT OWEN JONES and Grandmother ANNIE LAURA JONES (nee REYNOLDS) I have no clue of their marriage date either or death. WHERE DO I START???? I have started looking both up but really have no idea if i get close. The only clue i have is that my grandmother was in her forties when my mother was born. The fact that JONES is soooo common in WALES is like finding a minute pin in a haystack. Both were from North Wales, Penmachno, Conway area.

ANy advice HUGELY appreciated!!

Thanx
