Find Ancestors

I wonder if anyone could offer me any information on Nellie Burn born in Dewsbury in 1890? Nellie Married George Grantham (1890) in Hull in 1917 and had three children, Nellie (Ellen), George and Pat. Unfortunately that is all I can find.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Melanie

The mariiage cert would give you the name of Nellie's Father.

A possible 1911, but you really need the marriage cert to confirm:
