Can anyone help me with a missing generation.

I have William Bernard Eagers b.Sept 1883 in Ecclesdall Bierlow. He married Ann Elston but I cannot find her anywhere at all.
I have their children with the oldest being Frederick b.1892 which is an impossibility, William 1895, Alice 1897, Robert ? (my line), and Alfred 1904

Can anyone help me piece this together as I have something wrong.
Regards
Gill

Do you have them on the 1901 census? If so can yu post the details for reference as I can't find them.

UPDATE: Have found William Bernard Eagers. He is licving at home with his mother. Where have you had the names of his 'children' from?

Do you have Roberts birth certificate? When was he born?

Hi Sam
No birth cert for Robert as yet.
Sorry Sam but I am at work and do not have my census docs with me. Can you bear with me till tomorrow as I really would like your help. I just have my tree with me and I shouldn't have done this till I got home.

Sam

Sam Report 23 Oct 2007 15:14

No problem. Just wondering where you have Ann's maiden name from if you don't have Roberts birth certificate. Also, where have you had the names of Frederick, William and Alice from as I can't find them?

Hi Joanne
That could be the Ann but I am not sure. I have the birth cert for Alfred so that's how I know about Ann.
I cannot find a marriage for Ann and William either.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Sam
I will double check when I get home but I am sure the information came through Robert, the son of Robert 1901 who is still alive and loves talking about the old days.
Thanks
Gill
