Hi,
Can anyone help me out please. I am trying to find any children from a Arthur KIrby born about 1895 and Margaret Amy Kirby born 1894. They married in 1919 and it all is in Hampshire.
Thanks John

This is the marriage

Marriages Jun 1919 (>99%)

Kirby Arthur Lovell Droxford 2c 427

Lovell Margaret A Kirby Droxford 2c 427

There don't appear to be children to the marriage? You can search on Freebmd.org.uk using surnames but nothing coming up there.

Hi
Rambling Rose
Thanks for the info. Tried as suggested but with no result of any children. Not much else one can do I suppose.

you could check Arthur's death certificate to see whether a family member or friend or neighbour signed the death certificate

since he was 86 it is as likely that he died in a hospital or care facility in which case someone employed there would have signed it probably

I'm confused about whose siblings you are searching for :-)
