I would be grateful if someone with FMP membership could give me details of some birth records I've found when searching the site.

I'm after the 4 Barker births listed between 1872 & 1887. Parents' names would be especially helpful, but anything gratefully received!

Many thanks, in advance

Thanks very much, Pam.

Sadly, not the parents I was hoping for, but at least now I can discount these as possibilities. Yet another idea bites the dust :-)

Your time is much appreciated - thanks again
