Ask your bil if he knows if Caroline was the eldest?
Maybe her birth was reg under her Mothers maiden name?

Either that or she was born in Wigan!

If you have looked on each quarter and not found then someting odd somewhere, or perhaps I shouldn't say that!!
Have you searched from 1918 when Caroline would have been 16 and able to marry?

Sue

Sue Report 26 Sep 2008 22:27

Checked years 1918 - 1928 (just in case)

Fred I saw that one, area right but surname of groom wrong :-)
