You really need to make sure about where they were born.............you could end up following the wrong line if you don't get accurate details.

Reg

thanks for helping me

This could be her birth reference but is for Jan/Feb/March not April. Are you sure about her birth date?

Selena

lilly .l.powell and sister anne powell both were born at plymoulth they had a francis.g.powell sister i think but it is there mum and dad i am really after.thanks ps i know anne married name was lecointe.

If you have Anne's marriage certificate it will give the name of her father.

I couldn't find any marriage for Anne to Lecointe on freebmd.

Have you got either of the sisters on the 1901 census?

Selena

The sister (brother?)

Births Dec 1883
POWELL Francis George Plymouth 5b 243

So do you think the family that Reggie found in 1891 is the right family?

Selena

This could be Caroline that Reggie found, possible parents of Lilly and Annie etc
