Isabella, just need to say that if others are also using Ancestry to do lookups, unfortunately it is playing up at the moment so you might not get the usual amount of replies!

Please you will help to looking for Annie Jest's parents name while Annie is born in 1909 in Pontefract. I think to did not get her real parents name are Richard and Annie???? That's why I cannot find them for their daughter, Annie Jest.

brummiejan Report 31 Aug 2010 08:56

Isabella, can you please just go over this post as it's really hard to understand (well, for me anyway- might be the ageing grey cells!). Are you saying you know Annie's parents are Richard and Ann? So, do you have her birth cert now?

I'm sure Isabella must have the birth cert as it was suggested previously. Without it we are no better off than before!
