Find Ancestors

Hi
I was wondering if anyone one of you kind people could do a look up of my partners family.
I am need to find the parents of the following people:
The parents of:
John Fagan b. c1920 born in Liverpool I think and his wife Honora Bruffell b. 1920 -1988 again born in Liverpool

Many thanks

Bev

have you their marriage cert that will give you both dads names as a starter

From FreeBMD:

Births Mar 1920
Bruffell Honora Jones W. Derby 8b 895

Rose

Bev,

I won't post the details here because you can look for yourself on FreeBMD.

Look for a Bruffell marrying a Jones. Just type in the surnames

Rose

There are lots of John Fagans. Do you know when he died?

Rose

the birth of their eldest child would help as a start date wise to look for the marriage

I have no certs and no info from his family to be honest.
No idea when John Fagan died unfortunately. Their children were Joan, Francis and Anne

I'm searching in the dark here, so any help a nudge in the right direction would be great

Bev

Bev,

Did you find the Bruffell/Jones marriage?

Rose

No I havent Rose...
Im not sure if I'm looking in the right way, I'd be no good as a detective would I

Go here:

Select marriages and put in Bruffell where it says "Surname" and Jones where it says "Spouse/Mother surname"

Rose

right found Honoro marriage
Dec qtr 1940
Honoro Bruffell to Fagan Liverpool N 8b 1479

That cert will give you both dads names.
------------------------------------------------------

Found this one too that may be a family connection ,poss a sister.


Sept qtr 1940

Agnes Bruffell to Rodgers Liverpool N 8b 1569

Shirley

Bruffell Robert R Jones W.Derby 8b 870
is this the one you meant rose?

I wish I was like Shirley and got the hang of this!!

Bev

This is the marriage reference for John and Honora:-

Honora Bruffell to John C. Fagan
Dec. qtr. 1940, Liverpool N., 8b, 1479

The certificate will give you both father's names.

Ooops, Shirley found it first!!

That's it Bev.

You can also use the same technique to find siblings

Go here:

Select Births and put in Bruffell where it says "Surname" and Jones where it says "Spouse/Mother surname"

You'll see 2 likely siblings.

Rose

Found John's birth

June 1919
John C Fagan MMN Marnell Liverpool 8b 41.

Rose

Bev,

I'll let you find the marriage. It's on FreeBMD. There are also 2 siblings.

Rose

call me thick........ gently!..........
but I cant find the siblings you mention rose

Bev x

Select Births and put in Fagan where it says "Surname" and Marnell where it says "Spouse/Mother surname"

Rose

Sorry to be a pain but I've been having a play with IGI and also the freebmd

Do you think that a Robert Marnell b.1874 who married a Margaret b.1847 could be Agnes Marnell's parents?

Bev
