Here it is: OND 1929 Kingston 2a 678 Yvonne M Keith MMN Nicholas

The thing Reg found is on the 2nd page of the 11 page document. Janice

This is just typical!! Ancestry has all the links messed up for the December quarter of 1929 and when I finally worked out how to get into the Ks, the page I need is missing!! Can anyone access page 205 for Keith entries in the December quarter for marriages? I reckon they got married between the birth and the registration of Yvonne. Janice

I tried looking for a Nicholas marriage to a Keith and couldn't find one that quarter

Andrea, Could you actually find the right page? Janice

Found the marriage Mar qtr 1932 Cameron Keith to Muriel E Nicholas Kingston 2a 956 Steph

Thanks Steph, you're a star! So they didn't marry until Yvonne was 2 and a half!

thankyou all. I'm sorry Iv'e been so long away but Iv'e been printing out camerons service record and it's taking ages.I didn't realise that there was more than one image when you look. I thought there was only the one you can see . Dah .Well I am only a beginner at this.I'm learning though.But then Iv'e got good patient teachers.(sp) thanks everyone.

Here's the last piece of the jigsaw: Muriel E Keith and Horace G T Chappell JAS 1940 Surrey NE 2a 449 and a probable birth: Horace Gordon T Chappell JFM 1904 Croydon 2a 353 Janice

Oh , you should have seen my face.I havent laughed so much in years.You wait till I ring my mum in a min and tell her.We have already decided that it didn't matter if it turned out like this.Now to gey the certif and see where she was born. I bet it was an unmarried mothers home.Well,I'll be b..........d. I love it when you find things like this as it makes it so much more interesting.I would still like to know how you all find things that I either miss or can't find in the beginning though.I have got ancestry but I cant be using it properly.Thanks again x

I would just like to report that my mum took it very well.She said that it expained why her mums family were never around and were stand offish. As she said it dosn't matter these days.We will send for her birth certif to see if it says where she was born to check if it was a nursing home and where it was to see if she was sent away to have the baby.It's sad that she could never bring herself to tell my mum , even in the later years, and that she did'nt have any more children. She was only 17 at the time and cameron was 60 so that makes it even more wrong in the eyes of the family.Thankyou all for your help today.I have had fun and I hope you did too.

OK, peeps.After breaking the news to my mum,she now wants to know when the first wife,Emily nee Parish died.She wants to know if her mum and Cameron were doing naughties while she was still alive etc. I have looked on ancestry and free bmd and I cannot find a death for her. She was born around 1866 at Epping Essex. Could you see if you can come up with anything please as you seem to get more results than I. Thankyou.xxxxx

to keep up with the other thread

Oh,thankyou,thankyou,thankyou.Where did you find it ?. I searched all morning till I had Emily Keith's running in front of my eyes and making me have a headache. Oh my mum will be pleased that her dad didnt start looking around for a replacement till after she had died.My mum would have felt guilty if it had have been otherwise.thanks again .x
