We need some dates if you want help.

Also forenames...........

Have you tried checking the search facility to ascertain whether any other GR member is researching the same lines as you?

Hi Sarah, there is not much use putting a blanket request on here, have you tried the "trying to find" board?
You need to start from the beginning with FACTS that you are certain of ie, your parents marriage/births etc. Work backwards from there by getting birth/marriage certificates.
When you are back to 1901, you should be able to locate the families on the census.

Good luck

Go here, they cost £7 each and you do have to register first.
