Member Since: March 2005 Posts: 6 Send Message	I have received a marriage certificate but I can only find details of the male half in the 1901 census. The female part May Pickering, 22 from Middlesbrough lists Edward Pickering, Labourer as Father but I cannot correlate from Census details. What can I do now?

	Neil Possibly she was illegitimate and may have invented a father to 'save face' Alternatively she may be listed under a step father's surname in the 1901. Chris

	Neil, Do not assume that where someone marries is where they were born. My Mother was born in Glasgow and married in Hampshire. Maureen
