I seem to be always on here asking for help with this family. I have been trying to locate the birth certificate of Mary Ellen Cosgrove b.1885 appx. I have checked the St Catherines, 10 years each way. Last week I had a splurge and gave the GRO all the ref numbers I had and with a checking point for her father Peter. I have recieved a letter today saying that none of them were her. Im glad I didnt buy all those certs. I have also checked the census but they arent any help as there are 2 possibilities. I have her marriage certificate which tells me her father is Peter. What could I do next to find out which is the correct Peter and what her mothers name was. Any suggestion would be very grateful Jayne
