Elizabeth Mills BC 1909.

She was born I think in Bristol, Gloucestershire. She had a brother called Charles I believe BC 1908.

I am also 99% that Charles married a Lily Donovan but im not 100%, could someone help with that too.

I have been using Freebmd but im still a novice :(

Many Thanks

Have you considered that she may not have married?

You also need to establish actual birth years for these two - by looking on freebmd

You 'think' she was born in Bristol.........how does she relate to you?

To be sure about who Charles married, you'll need the cert - for father's details, to cross-refer with what you know about the father

Stroud's a fair way from Bristol - but, then, Baz is only guessing
