Hi Carolyn

Thanks for the pm and you are welcome. Below are possibles as children of Thomas and Emma. As Emma's middle name is Gabrielle I think the Gabrielle is very likely to be theirs which would put then in or around Bromley Kent in 1914 and maybe in 1917 for the Margaret birth.

Here's the birth reg for Thomas.

Births Jun 1864 (>99%)
CARRIER Thomas Owen Bedford 3b 318

Do you have the cert?

If she was unmarried and no father named then it won't be possible to find out who was the father.

I am trying to find my gt.grandfather. My grandfather was Thomas Own Carrier b. 1864 Biddenham Bedford. His mother Mary Carrier was b. 1847 BiddenhamBeds. I have her on the 1861 census living at home in Biddenham . She then disappears leaving Thomas with her parents. She next appears in the 1881 census having died in Hackey London. Hence the brick wall Carolyn
