It is nice if the posters hang around Alan but 20 mins is'nt long and Gabbana does know how to reply so I will expect she will be back

jax

If you have some info to add I am sure gabbana will appriciate it Alan

jax

dear all of you thank you very much for your time and help this is my great nan as she did have a daughter born in 1906 my nan she was very younng when her mum past away so did not remember much about her
thanking you a all again hope you all have a nice xmas and new year
gabbana

Well there are no marriages for Flora M Irwin only one death that would fit in the time span that I can see

jax

Flora is also a name in its own right Alan

gabbana has confirmed the 1911 census as being her grandmother and gt grandmother

jax

Alan

The birth and death have been posted.......FLORA is the correct name.

She did not marry and in 1911 census she had two daughters.

No she has posted her thanks on the thread her grandmother was born 1906

jax

I would think half the time they did'nt know their names, my grandmother was Beatrice mary when she was born but Beatrice Gertrude Ellen when she married because that is what she was told. Or it could be the parents forgot if the had a dozen or so children to remember and May and Mary are not too different

jax

merry xmas everybody.
love alan
