hi dave and linda,
yes i knew he was an engine driver, that was only as my nan told me. thomas richardson was my gt gt grandfather his youngest son redvers was mt gt grandfather. i just checked out the other sites free bmd and ancestry but it just opens a page saying error!
trying to find details of redvers richardsons wife gladys nee dorman, she was my great gran and sadly died a few months before i was born. she was born in june 1906 in kings lynn she married redvers in 1923 and died in 1981 im trying to find details on her parents and where she lived etc. is this possible?
thanks tasha

Hi Tasha,

Thats a difficult one, unless you know of any siblings names which may make a difference.
To be absolutely sure at this point I would order a copy of her birth cert, this way there is no room for error.
If you apply direct to the king's Lynn regestry office it should only cost around £7.50 , I have found ringing in advance to check the cert price always helps to speed things up? or call in if you are local.
I found picking my relatives brains about aunts uncles etc always helped.
