Find Ancestors

I am looking for the family of Stanley Gill born 10 jan 1904 in yorkshire. He live at 12 Ridgefield St, Castleford in 1911. Married Besty Watts in 1930 in Barnsley Yorkshire.

Stephen, what do you mean by his family? Parents, siblings, descendants??

You imply that you have seen him in 1911 so must have what you need from that? (Father Frederick, mother Ann and brother Wilfred)

I am looking for Ann full name

Ann's name will be on Stanley's birth certificate.

If he was born in Castleford this will be the certificate

Births Mar 1904
GILL Stanley - Pontefract 9c 166

Stephen, we're not clairvoyant on here! :-)

Would help if you'd said you were trying to find his mother's maiden name.

Sorry i am new to this

Hi Stephen - we all have to start somewhere! But, the info provided when you add your post does tell you to give as much info as possible - you'll learn!

As you'll have seen from the 1911 his parents had been married 13 years. Didn't take much to work out the possibles on FreeBMD:

Marriages Mar 1898
???BUTTERFIELD Ann Wakefield 9c 43
???Gill Frederick Wakefield 9c 43
Jennings Eveline Wakefield 9c 43
Millson Joseph Wattam Wakefield 9c 43

Of course, you still need certificates to verify
