Hi Caz It depends what it is you are looking for. Have you found your ancestor on the census? Presumably she was living ar one time in the house of this William Sidebotham. Have you got a birth certificate for the child? this would be worth searching for. If WS was famous then try Googling his name - this is likely to bring up something of interest. Peter
