Find Ancestors

Dawn.

Go here:

http://www.freebmd.org.uk

-- look in the lower left and click on "Search".

Then select "births" at the top.

for surname, put Terry
for mother's surname, put Kirk

click "Find" in the lower right.

You will see a total of 5 births from 1912 to 1928, in Marylebone and Pancras registry districts, with surname Terry and mother Kirk.

I would *guess* that the 1914 birth in Marylebone is a brother of your Jessie, if that is the right Jessie.

I would suspect that the 1920-1928 births in Pancras are another couple. But they could be children of your Jessie's parents. The only way to know is to order one of the birth certificates.

Now, your Terry & Kirk married in 1909. They could have had children before Jessie.

Do a new search at FreeBMD.

Search for

births
surname Terry
district St Marylebone
years 1909 to 1912

(You pick the district out of the list on the right)

You will see two Terry births before 1912. They could very well be sisters of your Jessie too.

Again, you simply have to get the birth certificates -- which have the parents' names -- to know for sure.


This information is all available *free of charge* and very easily at FreeBMD. It's the work that needs to be done if you want to find the answers to your questions.

And it's work that you can do for yourself! You're the one who will have to order the birth certificates, so you need to check the information even if someone else tells you what it is.

Oh, Dawn.

It's Jessie's BIRTH certificate you need.

Her BIRTH certificate will TELL you her date of birth.

Her birth certificate is THE ONLY WAY you are going to find out what her date of birth is.

When you KNOW her date of birth, THEN you can see whether there is a death that matches it.

i no what a birth certificate will tell you. But its not that i need!
Its the date of the month i need not a birth certificate!
Thank you for the above infomation but its jessies children i want to find not her brothers and sisters

Lord, Dawn, I don't know what more anybody could say.

The only way you are going to get the date of the month when she was born is to order her birth certificate.

And the only way you're going to find out whether she had any children is to get your own subscription to Ancestry and read through the pages of the General Register Office index, quarter by quarter, for the years after her divorce, looking to see whether she married again.

And then do it again, looking for the births of children with the name of her new husband and mother Terry.

And meanwhile, hope that if she did have children she was married to the father, because otherwise you don't have the proverbial snowball's chance.

Because really, nobody else is likely to do that for free.

But if you prefer to wait for magic, you can do that too.
