Rebecca had a thread running yesterday about Joseph Boardman who was Lavinia's husband (his second marriage)

Rebecca, have you received the image I emailed you earlier today? I shall be logging off soon so can you let me know asap.

Rebecca you can order copy certs from the GRO & each one will cost you £7

You will need both a birth & marriage cert for each person or at least those in you directline (grandparents/G Grandparents etc)

A copy cert will normally take a week to arrive but they are running slow at the moment due to WDYTYA? on tv.

Until you have some certs there is no point in trying to dig back any further as you may be chasing the wrong family

Rebecca you need to work backwards from the last person that you have CONFIRMED information on, ie if you know where & when your granny was born work from there

So if Florence was born in 1906 then the marriage in 1925 can not be right

Rebecca

Rebecca Report 30 Sep 2008 17:05
