Is this the daughter's birth? Name: Emma Samuel Year of Registration: 1873 Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep DISTRICT: Newport M County: Glamorgan Volume: 11a Page: 229 Reg

Where did you get the name Mary Lewis? Was it from the child's birth cert? Or are you, perhaps, guessing? Reg

I know that a daughter of their's was born in 1873,I have just checked her birth cert and it appear's to been registered in Newport.I am trying to solve a mystery and need the marraige cert to find Mary Samuel's (nee Lewis's ) Fathers name..Sandra

Hi Sandra FreeBMD will come up with a list of men and a list of women - usually 2 of each sometimes more. It does not tell you which ones married. Are you sure your couple married or are you tracking one of them and looking for the other? If you're after the chap - just put his name in the order and leave the spouse bit blank. If you know both of their names and have completed the form correctly maybe you have the wrong year/place/quarter? Jill

Do you know that these two are your ancestors or are you assuming they are because they are the only ones listed on BMD? BMD is not complete. They may have the same details with some of the other people missing from the page (ie her husband and his wife) If you ring the certificate place they are usually pretty good and will still send you the one you require.
