Shiley, Have you tried freeBMD? I found the marriage there, and some of their sons - Richard Alvan and Eric. Crista

Hello Crista Thanks for your help. I have the info on Richard and Annie Eliza and the first son, they are all on the 1901 census. I do know they had Erik in 1902 he never married and Neville in 1917. somewhere either in between these two or after, they had another son and a daughter, five children altogether its these two I am trying to find information about. I dont know what their names were. I just wondered if anyone had any ideas of what records I could look up next. Thanks Shirley I
