Thanks Rootgatherer, I do have the marriage and birth certificate for Charles Henry Dyas. I am going to order the birth cert for Maud Marion Wells. It might take a bit of time, but it will give me a bit more to go on.
I don't know how you all do this its difficult for me just doing my family but you all do it for other people.
I hope that one day I will be able to return the favor...
Bye for now
Sandra PS. I'm getting quicker at typing though. It used to be just 2 fingers.

If you haven't already done so, buy Charles's marriage certificate to confirm that you have the correct birth. (It certainly looks like the only possible one on freeBMD, assuming that the correct dates of birth are correct on the headstone)

From his marriage certificate you can cross check his father's name and occupation.

Again, if you don't already know, the marriage certificate will tell you if his or Maud's father is deceased.

Hi Rootgatherer ,All I know of my dad's dad, is that he was born Charles Henry Dyas on 28/02/1887 and died 19/02/1971. He married Maud Marion Wells Born 28/03/1890 and died 14/09/1972. I was nearly 20 when my grandad died and they lived in Lincoln all that time and for as long as I remember. The info of birth and death was on their grave stones. Where they where born I have no idea. I wish that I had asked these questions when they where alive.. I don't know for sure if they had sibling. I do know that my grandad was a Signal man, but I don't know where. They had four children Charlie, Harold, Edgar ( my dad ) and Phyllis.
Hope this makes sense. I have got other info from Threads that I have placed. But deciphering it I find mind boggling.

Hi Sandra

Don't belittle yourself, we all had to start somewhere. It's like any hobby - you get better as time goes on. These boards are all about sharing what we have learned over the years.

I'm a wee bit concerned that you have said that the information that you gave was from the "birth cert of what I think is my Grandad". From his marriage certificate did the name and occupation of his father match that same information from the birth certificate that you have? Sorry if I am being picky here, just want to make sure that you have the correct people in your tree.

Hi thanks for that Viv, or should I say wonder woman. I new that was not how you spell technology but the more I wrote it down and scrubbed it out again, the more it looked completely wrong. So I sent it anyway even though I made a pigs ear of it.
I am good at some things you know, but none of them are to do with computer technology or crime investigation. But every name I am researching feels like its Smith and Brown because of my lack of knowledge on the subject. Thats why I,m going to join a Family History group when I can find a good one in my area.
Many thanks takecare.

Hi Sandra to answer this question..

No wonder I can't find stuff , it must be because you all have Degree's in History research, computer technowledgy, crime invetigation and more... Am I right?
Sandra:¬))

I am rubbish at computer technology ,but with the lack of info you gave us to go on I asked for the power of mind reading, to get the knowledge of the family stored in your memeory that you hadnt given us ,and look...,,it worked ;:)

So I am well on my way to being Wonder woman!
Along with many others on here,although some might be Wonder Men of course.
happy hunting
viv

Edit,,,but as rootgatherer said if it had been Smith and Brown we would have needed a Miracle to get anywhere;)

Thanks for the tip rootgatherer. I slipped up when typing it out. Don't worry though coz I slapped my own wrist and told myself to do better next time lol..
Thank you for your help though coz your name often pops up during my searches.

Hi Sandra - That's ok as Viv found the marriage. Just a tip, if you had put the year of birth for their son, it would have given a rough time scale. Perhaps not so important in this case with two not very common surnames but had the surnames been Smith and Brown .......... well it just doesn't bear thinking about!

Good luck with your research.
