Thank you Carol,

Just so I know where to look in future - where did you get this information from?

I am a full memeber of Ancestry also - but couldn't get anything there either (plus anything I was looking for the images where blank!!)

Thanks Again
Jo

Thanks Carol - ,

This all makes sense, except for Mary - as my gran Bernadine was born after Mary. Sarah Monaghan died approximately 1927 (my gran thinks she was about 2 when she died - though she may of been around 4). Gran thinks Mary was born in approximately December 1922.

But once again thank you so, so much xxxx

Bingo! Think I've got 'em!

Towards
Robert Toward
Mother's maiden name Hogg
Q2 1916, Vol 10b page 302. Newcastle upon Tyne.

Can't find anything for Elizabeth, you sure it's her first name?. Have you any other info for Elizabeth?

Kellys
Bernadine H Kelly
Mother's maiden name Monaghan
Q1 1925 Vol 10a Page 1863 Gateshead Co Durham

Josephine M Kelly
Mother's maiden name Monaghan
Q2 1920 Vol10a Page 2419 Gateshead Co Durham

Mary Kelly proving a little more complicated!
Mother's maiden name Monaghan
Q1 1914 Vol 9c Page 1819 Doncaster. County of West Riding Died Q1 1914 Vol 9c Page 1079, so must have died at/soon after birth. This would explain why there is the following entry, as parents often named their next child after one that had died early.

Mary Kelly
Mother's maiden name Monaghan
Q2 1917 Vol 9c Page 1485 Doncaster. County of West Riding

Hope this helps!

Regards

Yes I'm a member of Ancestry - I'll check if I'm looking in the right index.

Carol - I have sent you the details privately.

Thanks both, sometimes I can't see the wood for the tres.

Hi

Have you got the right quarter, or have you checked the whole year. Sometimes if one is born near the middle/end of a quarter it is often registered in next one by the time someone goes to the office to do it. Can I help you search? You can give me the details and I'll have a go, although I'm no expert!

I am search for 2 people, both still living one born 1915 and the other 1925 but I cannot find their births. Am I missing something?
