I am trying to find the births and marriages of two of my uncles on Ancestry .. but am having absolutely no luck and it is frustrating in the extreme. I have tried searching on every variation that I can possibly think of .. their details are Herbert Gordon Capstick (b 1923) and Walter H Capstick (b 1927). Mother's maiden name Owens. and they would have been born in Lancashire. Can anyone help me? |

I can see that you weren't looking at the full records. Found Walter's birth......... AMJ 1927...Lancaster.......8a/944 MMN Owens I'll let you have the pleasure of finding the other one. You do have to register with the site to access the full records................. Reg |

Many many thanks for that .. I think I've now found where I was going wrong .. I'm revisiting my tree having had a break for a while .. obviously more out of touch than I thought! xx |
