Thanks for that. She is my great grandmother. I am having big problems finding her birth entry, got her wedding cert in 1926 and her death cert in 1961 but no birth cert. Someone emailed me saying it could possibly Hooper, but this is all a big mystery. I know her father was william wynn but really want to know who her mother was.

Emma You need to work back - have you got her maiden name on her marriage cert or the birth certs of her children? nell

She married albert charman and her maiden name on the cert was wynn, but as i cannot find her birth entry in this name i thought perhaps she had a different name at birth and took her fathers name later on.

I can't give you further info from 1901 as I would have to pay, but possibly someone will look this up on ancestry if they have a sub - try posting a specific request on the Records Office board. Or you could pay yourself and find out:. nell

These are the Wynns on the same 1901 page as Winifred Wynn aged 5, 'wrong' father so doesn't look like your Winifred.
