Hi Jan

I just looked on FreeBMD and can't find the marriage either. It could be a case of mistranscribing so it may take some searching

Good luck

Jane

Hi Jan

On birth cert it says Oldland Common, Bitton (and underneath it looks like Glos Road)
When I spoke to the records office they said at this time it came under Somerset and the birth cert has the reg district as Keynsham

I have also checked Glos, Bristol and Barton Regis

Thanks

Hello

I have received a birth certificate today of Annie Jones who I have been looking for, for what seems like ever!!

Her mother was Emily Jones (formerly LEAR) and her dad was Charles Jones a coalminer. Annie was born 6/08/1883 at Oldland Common, Bitton.

I have been unsuccessful in finding Annie in any census except the 1911 when she was married to Thomas Upton. I have all this info

I cannot find a marriage for a Charles Jones to a Emily Lear.
On Annies marriage cert her father is named Charles so I am sure it is the right Annie.
If anyone could double check marriages for me on FreeBMD I would be really grateful.
At the moment my 5 year old is crying and shouting and driving me nuts but I am so excited I have found her birth

Thanks

Marcelle
