Well done Eric. No wonder I couldn't find it.

There seems to be several possible children of Janet and Mr Dodd on FreeBMD. Link given above.

There are possible marriage of Thomas/Martha on FreeBMD but it might be a good idea to purchase the birth certificate of 1884 to confirm the parents.

Where would this be?

Do you have Janet and her father on a census?

David

David Report 13 Sep 2008 19:49


My mother's mother was Janet alice Dodds (widow)
Her maiden name was Stewart
Her father was William Thomas Stewart
(or possibly Thomas William stewart, I'm not certain)

Mr Stewart was a chair maker, it says so on his daughter's marriage certificate.

I'm looking for my grand mothers mother, my gggm

Time birth frame 1860 approx

Can any one help?
