Find Ancestors

thanks for responding We where trying to find the parents of Herbert Watkinson born1892 in york yokshire he dosent seem to be on any 1901 census Garry David

It was my doing that he has put the thread back, having deleted it twice.

Give the man a bit of time - there were a few of us helping him out, when someone told him that now he'd found the marriage to Herbert and Elizabeth he should delete the thread cos it was cluttering up the boards. Consequently, some of us in the middle of doing things lost all our hard work - and I, for one, have forgotten where I was up to.

I am hoping people will come back and add what they found on the previous two threads.

Herbert and Elizabeth had six children, just in case we need to know at some point - Queenie, Fred, Doris, Frank, John and Arthur. EDIT and James Herbert as mentioned below.

Maureen was looking for Gertrude Watkinson, but I can't remember who she was - or why we were looking for her.

Was just trying to regain the status quo.

EDIT I think he's sending for the marriage cert.

silly me - should have spotted that!
Do you have his marriage cert which would show is father's name
