Thanks for help so far, What we think we know : Jackies dad died when she was one. Mother also dead. Father Herbert Powell, born 01/04/1902 Had older brother Frederick Baden Powell. Found one registered Mar qtr 1901. Had brother Cecil (possibly niddle name Joseph) found one registered June qtr 1904. Died as a baby or young boy. also Gladys & Ernest born after ? Parents Bert & Annie could be number of possibles eg Albert, Herbert, Ann etc. Kids found registerd in Basford, Nottinghamshire.. Have I lost you yet. Any info would be great. Sally & Jackie
