Member Since: March 2004 Posts: 232 Send Message	Yes thanks for the reminder Ann. I haven't been on here for quite a while and I'm a bit rusty. I'm trying to find parents for Fredrick James Dawson born 2 August 1873 in Bedford. I can't find anything on Ancestry and would like to get it for my friend without resorting to Birth certificates. The family dosen't seem to be on the 1881 census.

Member Since: March 2004 Posts: 232 Send Message	Thank you for your replies. I have checked that one out already I should have told you this sorry! Fredricks children are William Ernest b. 1901, Helen Cecelia Nora b1906 d 1906, Horace Fredrick b1913, Ivy M b1915, Jessica A b1917, John Thomas 1904. My friend thinks that Fredricks dad could be named Isaac and I have an Isaac born 1853/4 lived in Bedford and born in Northampton but I can't tie him in to Fredrick without a birth record. Maureen
