I have a PM here , hope its okay to put it here Hi Jess, thanks for your reply, I have info'' on Harry Percy Ramus & Annie Sophia Mason but nothing on Annie''s Parents other than her father''s name, needed to know who his parents were, when & where they were born, I''m really stuck on this one ..... there''s always one that will throw a spanner in the works! grateful thanks for your help. Audrey You are only stuck for now, there is a solution.Both fathers names would be on the marriage cert- do you have it? These cert would no doubt be useful too- they will name both mothers and fathers, and mothers maiden names Name: Harry Percy L Ramus Year of Registration: 1904 Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar DISTRICT: Southwark(1901 Onw) County: Greater London, London Volume: 1d Page: 86 Name: Annie Sophia Mason Year of Registration: 1907 Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep DISTRICT: Lambeth County: Greater London, London, Surrey Volume: 1d Page: 295

Have found several William Masons in the 1901 census living in Kensington; 1. Born c.1853 in St. Pancras, wife Maria. 2.Born c.1879 in Kilburn. 3.Born c.1848 in Paddington, wife Sarah. 4.Born c.1881 in Marchfield, wife Charlotte. 5.Born c.1886 in Willesden, parents Samuel and Annie. If you think any of these are likely matches, I will check the census copy for more details. Hope this helps, Hilary

what you now now need to do is send for both of these certificates from The general register office. This will tell you both Annies parents names, THEN we can start looking for THEM in 1901 census. until we know their names, there is nothing we can do there are at least 5 men of the right age on the 1901 census...I wouldnt like to gues which was her father
