Welcome Bridgette

Find Ancestors is the best board for actually researching your family and many will do their best to help you there.
Often replies come within minutes, so it is best to post requests when you will be around for a while to answer any extra questions that might aid the search.

I take it you have worked back to William from more recent known relatives.
Do you have the birth certificate of his child to know that his wife was Emma ?

Hi "I'm confused"
I started this family tree on this site a few years ago, but so confused that I gave up and left it. Well Im now back and haven't made much progress at all again. Im looking at names and how do I know Ive got the right person. William Cobley b1835 in Leicester. When I look up this person there are lots of them. So how do I find the right one? I know the information is looking at me but I cant see it. I know he married Emma and he had 3 children. Can anyone help me as I would like to find out if he had and brothers and sisters. Or may be I can have some one who I can ask the odd question to know and again.
Many Thanks
Bree.
