If you are having several checked.

For instance:


Some are Dorothy Emily Williams With ref:no

Some are just Emily Williams with ref:no

They will match it with the first name only.

So if you want them both checked do them as seperate orders.

Otherwise you end up paying for a check for nothing because they won't use initiative (SP) my mind is all over the place with frustrated anger and disappointment. arghhhhhh!

From yet another 39 pounds down the drain.

This woman is costing me pounds.

Emily Dorothy doesn't exsist at all.

As my grandson would say she's just a chemical spillage whatever that means lol.

I hate her now lol.

So remember first name only is checked.

If you are not absolutely sure that the father's name is going to be put down in correct order just leave it blank so that they send certificate.


They only take notice of the first name so if say his

name was charles bertram and it was put down as

bertram charles they would not think oh this is

obviously the man just uses his second name

instead of first.
They would just say it was incorrect.
Just got off the phone to GRO must admit the woman went out of auto after speaking to me she was laughing at the end.

And said she hoped i'd get what i was hoping for when the new certificates come.


Sorry for ranting but after two years of trying to find

Emily Dorothy Williams 1891 supposedly

I am really desperate now and just got a letter sending me for Breast Cancer Screening.

Just great.lol.

hope my ranting makes sense.

Thanks all for your suggestions.

As to where she was born all i can say is that According to 1911 Census she was married then.

She wrote down Liverpool lancs

But i have not been able to locate her there with birth cetificates or on 1901 1891 census

Her marriage certificate has her living in ebbw vale

1911 census she is at the house she
died at 1912 rose terrace beaufort ebbw vale .

Her death has the same address as her sons birth certificate

1912 one week before she died.

Von say her father was down as John Benjamin not Benjamin John

and had it checked for father Benjamin.

Would they send it?


The church which would have held the records for who paid for the plot have had most of there records destroyed in a fire.

Thanks for listening.

where and when was she married - do you have that cert?

(unless a cert matches 100 with what you ask for, they wil simply say 'no match' so if it says Ben John, and you ask for John Ben, then No, it doesnt match.

(Actually if you said her fathers name was Ben, and the cert said Benjamin, they wouldnt send that either)

WHY AE YOU PAYING £39 FOR A BIRTH CERT???

emily is driving me dotty Report 6 Sep 2007 14:30

Yes i have her marriage certificate emily d wills bedwelty ond

John george worgan

Witness his sister who brought the baby up after emily died.

We now the marriage is correct because we knew Eva Worgan/Evans

other witness was kate barnett ?

It took place at sirhowy register office bedwelty.

got her death certificate

Sons original birth certificate same address as death.

House where John G worgan was living prior to marriage is pleasant view beaufort ebbw vale.

Any way the only other John George Worgan i know of was his dad.

Woolaston Glos. 1859
Woolaston 1882/1883.

He put himself down as 25 on marriage cert. Should have been 28 really.



but when he married again 1915 he put himself down at correct age.

Thanks for helping

I had another lot checked for fathrs name Benjamin.

and they say no match i had all emilys checked in 1891 wales

and some in 1892

and have had others checked in england different dates.

Oh my god so that means one of them could be ben williams instead of benjamin and they wouldn't send it.

In the house in 1911 there is another family of Willams they have seperate rooms in the house .

I know she is down as emily Worgan but the man Henry Williams 1883 just might perhaps be her brother.

All though it says hes born in Beafort i can fins his wife Margaret E williams /jones married 1903

But not Henry williams 1883 born Beaufort.

We have not issued a certificate from the references you supplied as... 1.1893 Sept Plymouth 5b 284 - there is no mention of the above namedperson at the reference quoted2.

that was dorothy emily at plymouth but they would send it because i put it down as Emily they didn't say fathers name.


1893 Dec Toxteth Park 8b 206 - the Fathers name is not Benjamin3.

1894 Jun Stroud 6a 322 - there is no mention of the above namedperson at the reference quoted4.

Same for this one its Dorothy emily

1891 Dec Toxteth Park 8b 194 - the Fathers name is not Benjamin5.

1892 Sept West Derby 8b 384 - the Fathers name is not Benjamin

Emily williams 1891 toxteth park fathers name richard James williams mother annie williams formerly mckinnley had a baptism checked on that and it was just emily.
