I think you need to get Richard and Mary's m.cert. There's a dozen Richard's b in the 1920s with pob=Sunderland, so we need some help like his age and dad to narrow hings down.
Mary H is a bit easier - I think this is her folks:

Message from Sandra

How do you get all this inforamation so quickly?? where did you go for the info?

Many thanks

I love it when you you reach the stage of saying How?


For Births deaths and marriages I use freebmd. Google it. It is free.
Experiment with different search criteria.

For census material I use Findmypast. I find the layout is clearer than Ancestry. Others use Ancestry happily. You can get a two week trial period.


For older records I use Familysearch.org
It is free.

For Geographic info Genuki is very good.

I google a lot and there are a nuber of other good sites with their own advantages.
Curious Fox
Rootschat

Many areas have an online parish clerk.

Read as many tips from the message boards as you can.

Go and have fun and do not be afraid to ask for help.

PM from Sandra
I have been looking at my computer for hours now so I think it is time to log off. I have been trying to work out what happened to David Farthing, why he became a step son etc.
