Hi Jen
I think that one is correct - now just birth and death of Elsie!

JenW

JenW Report 17 Oct 2008 14:30

I'd go for the Lanchester birth being him then

Can anyone crack this mystery?

Kevin

Kevin Report 17 Oct 2008 13:57

I also believe that Thomas was born around the Hampston area. I believe that this is in the Consett area.

When/where did they marry? There are loads of births for Elsie V Smiths :-(

Lindsey* Report 17 Oct 2008 13:54

I'm sure you know more , like when was their first child born, it would give a time base for finding their marriage ?

Hi I am trying to find out paternal Grandparents.
The only information that I have is that Thomas Mackenzie b 1910 married a Elsie V Smith. They come from the NE and Elsie reportedly died about 60 years ago from breast cancer. I would love to get the GRO numbers so I can order all BDM certs. I have checked BMD but nothing there on my searches.
Thanks GR for helping.
