H Sarah.

In case you are not aware, Freebmd is a very good site for looking up births, marriages and deaths 1837-about 1955. It's more fun to have a go yourself I think! You can find all the info Janice has supplied in this way.

Thank you brummiejan, I was not aware. Thank you Janice for getting me started

With these unusual names you should have a wonderful time :-D

Good luck! Do you have Ancestry for the censuses? if not, keep popping back as you get more names and dates.

Thank you, was John, Rob, Elizih, Mary and Samuel Mary Janes children? who was the father?

Father is Samuel - see 1901 census I posted earlier

Here's his death

Deaths Sep 1909
BESCOBY Samuel Henry 46 Lincoln 7a 257

From this date, along with the census, Mary Jane would have just been pregnant when he died - so he might have died without knowing another child was on the way. Very sad.

Have you looked on FreeBMD for their marriage as brummiejan suggested?

Thank you, sorry yes I was being blind! thank you x
