They didn't come up at first for me either Julie when I searched on George Dawson. It only came up when I searched on Ruth.

KathleenBell Report 11 Sep 2007 13:09

I think it's because they are not down as spouse to each other - but both just as boarders.

Rosetta,

I don't know whether you have Ruth's maiden name or not, but if you need to find it, this is George jnr.'s birth reference:-

George W. Dawson
Sept. qtr. Middlesbrough, 9d, 608

The certificate will give you Ruth's maiden name.

UPDATE - I really should learn to concentrate more, lol. I've just noticed that you give Ruth's maiden name in your original post. Sorry.
