Find Ancestors

Hi Dawn.
Marriage of George W Charlesworth to Edna Gray. 1937 July/Sept. Qtr. registered in Gainsborough. vol 7a 2402.

If you get a copy of the marriage certificate it will give their ages, their Father's names and occupations, and witnesses who may be siblings.

Hope this helps sort things out. Ethel.

If he was born in Wales, then this birth that Teresa found looks promising. Good luck

Not sure about this one.

Their are also 3 births in Lower Agbrigg which I don't think are connected with your family, here's one of them:
Sep qrt 1952 - Charlesworth Alan E - mmn Gray - Lower Agbrigg - 2c 605

Found the marriage:

Sept qrt - 1937

Charlesworth George W - Gray Edna - Gainsbro - 7a 2402

You could really do to get this certificate, it will hopefully give ages, occupations and addresses as well as their fathers names and occupations.

Hi Dawn,
Nothing new to add except these two births which weren't there last time I looked. They've been newly transcribed and maybe your grandparents haven't been transcribed yet.

Am trying to find out dob for oldest child.I always thought they were from, lincs but iam double checking.My grandad died when some of the kids(there were 10..though 2 sets of twins) were quite young so they don't know much,and my granny was a lovely sweet person who never said a word barely about anything personal.Will keep trying for as much info as i can,and see where it gets us when i get it.Thanks so much for trying,really appreciate it.

Here's the death entry:

Civil Registration event: Death
Name: CHARLESWORTH, Edna
Registration District: Lincolnshire
County: Lincolnshire
Year of Registration: 2005
Month of Registration: March
Date of Birth: 17 January 1919
District No: 6091J
Reg No: J2D
Ent No: 299
DOR: 0305

Still can't find a birth either Grey or Gray and nothing for George. Are you sure they were born Lincolnshire?

When did they marry? If you don't know, when was the first child born?

Regards
LfW

Hi again,sorry for delay...right...best i can do is full names and dob' for my 2 grandparents.George william charlesworth born 22/1/1911 and edna gray born 17/1/1919.Is that any help.My aunt says my gran was not a big talker..and i can agree with that!If we can find anything on them would be brilliant.Thanks a lot for even trying.Dawn.

Sorry Dawn, not having much luck with George either. Try and find what you can and I'll keep an eye out for your thread.

Liz

No sorry,will try and get hold of some of my aunts in this next week and see what they can tell me.I promise i will get back to you with some info,but as in middle of six wks hols,not always easy to pin down a date.I will keep checking my threads.Thanks so much,so kind of you,and am really looking forward to finding out more about my family!Thanks

Finding no birth for Grey in Gainsborough between 1915 and 1928, some for Gray but no Edna. Could this have been a middle name? Do you know her mother's maiden name?
