Hi
I have an Alice Garside born to a Mary (formerly Mack) and a Henry Garside in Salford 1905

I cant find Henry and Mary's Marriage or either of them as singletons on the 1901. I dont know if Alice was their first child or last of a long list.

Henry was a colliery labourer when Alice was born

Whenever I get any kind of lead there's insufficinet information to confirm or deny, Any ideas anyone? I'm going mad here.

Thank-you.

And guess who's living on the same page?
A mack family- hopefully this could lead me to Mary's family. He's the right age to perhaps be a brother.

Thanks everyyone.
