H Joyce What details are you actually looking for? Whats her name, give us all the details you have and see if someone can help? Suzanne

Hi Joyce, Do you have any idea when your Nan died? if you do then you can find the entry and it should tell you how old she was when she died, from there you could find her birth entry or at least narrow down the search. Are the church records stored in an archive that is open to the public? Her surname does not seem to be a very common one so that is a plus, do you know if the marriage was her first? Give as much info as you know about her and maybe one of can find her for you. Gen

my nan died 13 oct 1948 age 79,and her name was ada mary mellor,maiden name bassindale,but i live in holland so its not easy for me to try and find out,it did say on one of the cenus manchester but nearly all th bassindales come from lincolshire

forgot to add yes it was her first marriage as i have marriage cert

Her marriage to Samuel Mellor in 1893 is shown on FreeBMd and also on the LancashireBMD site. Her marriage certifciate will give the name and occupation of her father and with luck help to locate her in earlier census returns.

You already have the marriage certificate. What is the name of her father?

This is a dream, no its a nightmare...Arggggggggggghhhhh more than happy to let someone else have crack at this

and his occupation?

fathers name john bassindale(decesed)occ liceused vichuller
