Find Ancestors

You're welcome! Better get on with some work now lol! Mags

I just had a quick look-and found that one as well!-Oh well! At least I've established for definite about Lilian!! I'll keep on with the others and perhaps have alook on IGI as well-and check other peoples trees for any of them!! Many thanks for all your lookups! x

Hmm so far this is the only one I can find!! Sidney Lindsay Syms 1867 Jan-Feb-Mar Exeter

I think it's the same one, but I'll have a look on the image to see if it's clearer. **UPDATED it could be a D or an A on the image. It a swirly shape. I'll have a look for births to see if there are any others born same year. I think it's fairly certain to be the same one, with the link to Bessie as well. M

Hi-thanks so much-Only thing that concerns me is Sydeny is down as Sydney D,but the Marriage is Sydney Algernon-do you think the 'D' could just be a mistranscription or two middle names?
