I'm really stuck i'm trying to track down my nan's cousin & parents. But there doesn;t seem to be any documents (i.e. birth, death) for them. My nan cousin was called Cecil Jericho Garrett born in Amersham, Bucks circa 1900 (he died in the 80's) and had a sister called Elsie born in Amersham, Bucks 1906 & a brother called Horace born in Amersham, Bucks (year unknown). Cecil came and co-habited with my nan rosie lillian nellie cox (married name felce) and had 4 children with cecil (Maureen Rita 1949, Shirley 1950, Steven 1953 & Trevor 1956) but they are registered under felce. Any help i'd be very grateful.

I guess you'd better send to the GRO for one of the others two's birth cert then, at least we'll know mothers maiden name then
