elizabeth may of been my great nan who are nicholas and charles how do i find out about these

Nicholas and Elizabeth could have been Gertrude's parents...her birth certificate will give you that information. Charles could have been a brother of Gertrude. As Gertrude was not born until late 1901 she will not figure on the census until 1911

So the first thing you should do is purchase Gertrude's Birth Registration from

www.gro.gov.uk

On the form that comes up say yes you have the reference (given to you above) and it will cost £7

You also purchase the marriage certificate from the same source.
