Jennie,

I think you will need to work backwards on this. Do you have your nan's birth cert? This will give you her mother's maiden name then you can look for your great grandparents marriage, which will give you their ages and both father's names. Then you will probably be back to the 1901 and earlier censuses.

If you don't have your nan's cert, do you know her date of birth?

Jennie

Jennie Report 28 Sep 2007 19:57

All i know is the 4th of January, she passed away in June 1991 at approx 65 years old so i can only guess here date of birth is about 1925-1926

If you buy the marriage cert you will ages and father's names and occupations to try and trace them in 1901.

you have found so much for me already as i was going round in circles i am really pleased thanks does ancestry cost much to join?

You beat me to it Rose!

Ancestry - I pay about £35 a quarter - cheaper if you pay annually. There is usually a free trial.
