	If you're lucky, you may be able to find some info on the local BMD searchable sites, if your family happened to live in the right area. See ukbmd.org.uk. and click on the Local BMD icon on the left. The list is in alpha-order but two sections - the alpha sequence starts again after Yorkshire. Christine

I have no idea whether she went on to have more children from the marriage, but am keen to track them down if they exist. They married in 1899 and in the 1901 census are still just living with my grandad. Any clues as to how I progress from here?
