Jen, found out that you can save things you have found to your 'shoe box' on ancestry. Which is handy as I was finding things and then losing them again. there is also a bit you can save to which is 'might be mine but I'm not sure yet so I better save it just in case...' Which comes in very handy for my Great Grandpa who doesn't want to be found before he got married...... *rolleyes* s. xx

SORRY What i am struggling to find is his birth i know he was born roughly the 7th August 1923 in Hull. His parents are John Whitehead and Doris Irvine. I found the death certificate but why is there nothing for the birth? Many thanks and sorry for messing you all about i shall read my messages through before posting in future as it is wasting all of our time when i post wrong. Jen
