My great uncle Joseph Mantle married Blanche Woolley in 1907. I have traced the Woolley family through the censuses and I know that Blanche had two brothers called William and George. Their parents were William Woolley and Jane ?????. How do I find out what Jane's maiden name was? I have gone through Ancestry looking up all the William Woolley marriages and have found a marriage in 1885 of a William Woolley and Jane Glover but how can I prove this is them? |

Hi Sue her maiden name will also be on the marriage cert, as well as both the parents and occupations, that will help to cross reference we all have those blank moments lol sandra |
