Do you have your own birth certificate Wendy? Surely your mother's maiden name will be on that, (which will be your grandfather's surname). Kath. x

Perhaps you should start with getting your mother or father's (whichever was your grandmother's child) birth certificate first. That way you would have the correct names of both your grandparents. Then you can work backwards. Kath. x

what was her married name? Jeanette

KathleenBell

KathleenBell Report 25 Oct 2006 11:42

I have looked at the marriages on the complete index on Ancestry and there is no marriage in 1924 for a Winifred Strickland. If she married in 1924 and was 24 when she got married then her birth must have been about 1900 and not as early as you thought. What was your grandfather's name? Kath. x
