I've recently started researching my family tree and thought I was doing ever so well as managed to trace back to my great great grandad born 1860, until it gave me his birth place being Worcester Marlley. I received this info off an electoral roll. I'm not sure if this is an area, a district, or a name of a hospital somewhere? All of his children were born in Birmingham if this helps? Would be so grateful : (

This looks like Arthur in 1881 with his parents.

Note his mother is born in Martley. I think that is probably the place you found.

When you say electoral roll, you mean census dont you?

The place would be the area he was born in - very very few babies were born in a hospital then - in fact up to the 60s virtually everyone had a baby at home.

You can find births, marriage and death cert refs at freebmd and then buy the certificate for further information from GROonline for £7.

Thanks guys, U've made me very happy : ) It looks like u've cracked it. Hate 2 ask but hav u any idea who Arthur was married 2 ,as the childrens mother wasn't on the electoral roll. Could she have died after Nelly was born? x

So now you can get the marriage cert of George and Ellen and find both of their fathers for certain.

That should keep you busy buying certs and putting details on your family tree.

Good luck

You don't mean electoral roll.

Which census did you actually look at?

That makes it Mary Ann Curtis then.

I wonder if she and Kate Curtis were sisters and shared a wedding day.
