I take it she was born Joyce Hilda Cartwright? When? if you can find her birth registration it will give you Priscilla's maiden name. Sam x

What was your nanas name and when was she born? Where is Ackworth? There are loads of George Cartwrights, you need to narrow it down. You won't find Priscilla until you know her maiden name. Sam x

I everyone, i am very new to all this which probably explains why i'm getting nowhere. Here is my problem My nanan's mum and dad were called george and priscilla cartwright who live in ackworth. I myself have visited their grave in ackworth and from that have taken the year of birth from the headstone, however, when i search BMD indexes and census, i can not get a match. George cartrwight was born in 1890. We believe strongly that he was born i ackworth. Priscilla cartwright for which i have no maiden name was born in 1898. Please can someone tell me where i am going wrong. I am so very grateful for any possible help anyone can give me Hazel
