Right, can someone else see what they think about this?? (Probably not much but please don't laugh!!) I might be clutching at straws. Can anyone see Ivy Brooks born Notts on 1911?

I would consider it a good call but for the seemingly confident statement

"all i know is she was born in chesterfield around 1900-1905 "

Maybe the poster can tell us HOW they know this to be fact

Well, exactly. All Pamela knows for sure is that Ivy and family lived in Chesterfield as far as I can tell, but no evidence of their birthplaces..

William Brook in above 1911 is from Chesterfield - but I might be trying to be too clever here.

Just checking - do we know Ivy's parents' names?
