Can't look for his dad's marriage because i don't know his mothers name , although my grandad does seem to think both his grandmas were named mary, so her name was possible mary. I thought the name Davison wasn't very common but now i'm finding it to be.. Name was davison and not Davidson. |

Susan Where have you been looking so far? Have you looked on free BMD for John's father's marriage? I'll try and help if I can. Regards Sarah. |

Hi Susan, I have looked on the decoder, and cannot find a john Davidson of about 7 years. There is one of three years of age in Runcorn Chester. Could this be him? The next thing you can try is to go to your local library look at the Birth index and look for all the John L Davidson's born around 1894 giving yourselve a few years either way. Once you have found this you can then send for his birth certificate. If you think he was born in Chester start with these ones on the index. regards Eileen in Portsmouth |

Where do i go from here i have a marriege certificate for John lambert davison and Olive hardy, I thought if i could find who else lived at the address i would be able to find out his mothers name . John lambert lived at 16 elm street, chester le street, his dad was called john davison also. I belive he had a brother named jim and 2 sisters jenny and hanner. john lambert was 26 years in 1920 when he marriaged. also tells me he was a widower would be intresting to find his first wife.. Don't understand the census to well, especially the decoder.. I also have name of olive's dad and the address. I could really do with some help otherwise i may just give up. please.. |
