My first guess would be Warwickshire, probably Birmingham, here birth year is calculation so it may be a year either way. thank you |

I'm guessing that you're working from a marriage cert.........do you have the names of the witnesses? Unless her father was a witness, you don't really know who he was........... Reg |

I dont know what to think because the birth cert says Joseph, what is your opinion ?? |

Patricia | Report | 20 Sep 2006 21:09 |
Now this is getting even more confusing searched on IGI and the one reg gave me the info for has a father called john but there is another and her father is Joseph, so it looks like it is the other one, so it seems i have located her, it states that her mother is Jane. Thank you everyone for helping |
