If you haven't found her on a census.....how do you know where she was born? Is this the birth reg'n? Name: Ellen Elizabeth Dodd Year of Registration: 1885 Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun District: Birmingham (1837-1924) County: Warwickshire Volume: 6d Page: 38 Reg

Yes gonna have to be good so i can order yet another Cert, Oh god i am gonna be in the dog house LOL

Thank you for that surgestion, i will do a print off, I dont know the mothers name just the father unfortunatly.

If you only have father's details from her marriage cert I would recommend getting the birth cert. It will give you the mother's name which may help in tracing her on the census, as well as an address, or at least a narrower address than just a registration district. Once you have mother's name, you can find her marriage to Alfred, if they were married, which may give you their ages - again helping to find them on the census.

What was her mother's name? You say you have her birth cert......... Reg

Could this be her in 1891? Could Aston be classed as Birmingham?

Cara You should be able to get the info you need from the GRO bmd indexes. Then you can use the refs to order certificates to help in your search.

I only have the marriage cert, i do have the registration details to order birth cert, I suppose this is my only move now, STALEMATE. Sorry to hear you having problems to good luck !!

Can't find Ellen Dodd in 1891 or 1901. What are the details on her birth cert - what's her mother's name?

I know just how you feel, I'm trying to locate details on my fathers parents. Unfortunately I now longer speak to my father (his choice) so can't get any details from him. All I do know is that my grandmother was Deeney Cooke born 3/3/1933 and she married my grandfather who is called either George or Thomas Bancroft. I know that they had 2 children my father Stephen Bancroft born 16/06/1953 and my Aunt Lynn Morley (nee Bancroft) born in 1955 not sure of the exact date and she died 1986. I could scream I'm getting that frustrated. Hope things get better in your search. Cara-Deeney Bancroft

No nothing can find anything thats the problem LOL
