this is the marriage for a john gavin and an edith griffin j/f/m 1926 liverpool,

How do you get thoses things up that tell you everybody that's living in the house? She has a sister called Ruth, 4 yrs younger, and her father was John Gavin. He was born 1899 in Liverpool.

She hasn't. Don't know what to do now. She's the only one left (keeps saying she's not around for much longer lol she'll be here in another 20 yrs!!) and just wants to find her roots.

Mmmm - you saw it too then. Well done for finding it. I think you need to ask her if she has her birth certificate. Did she have siblings? If she did you could check for their registrations to see what name the mother is given as. Does she know her fathers birth date? and where he lived etc. before 1901? If he was born before then. You could always start looking for his line through the marriage cert and the census.

That's what i was thinking when i pulled it up. Thought i'd done it wrong.

Well, you better tread carefully then, as if this is the right cert and there isnt another there to match ......................... If she is still alive ask if she has her birth cert and her parents marriage cert - that will help you.

Her mum died when she was 16 but i'm pretty sure her dad didn't marry again. He was in the forces and travelled quite a lot. She bought her sister up.

Are you sure that her 'mum' wasnt a step mum? Thats the only entry for the right time and place/name. Where did you get the birth date from?

She gave me her birth date. Wants to find out more about her ancestors but doesn't know alot, so i said i'd give it ago on here (but i'm not very good lol).

Thanks for that. Thought it was the right one, the only thing is her mother's maiden name isn't Griffin, it's Buxton.
