What do you mean by 'family'?

How much do you know already - in addition to what has been posted on here?

Why don't you send a message to the poster of this thread - just click on her name.

If her email hasn't changed in the last 6 years, GR will notify her

I just found this thread last night! 7/18/2019. My name is Kimberly. I am the eldest granddaughter of Margaret Searle-Braga-Bonar 1925-2016. Parents were Henry Searle and Edith Roberts. I am searching for information regarding family.

possble there were other children born

Name: Benjamin Searle
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1911
Date of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep 1911
Age at Death: 0
Registration district: Hayfield
Inferred County: Derbyshire
Volume: 7b
Page: 1186

the above ties in with the location of Henryy and Edith in 1911 census

Births Sep 1911 (>99%)
SEARLE Benjamin Roberts Manchester 8d 435
Surname First name(s) Mother District Vol Page
Births Dec 1912 (>99%)
Searle James Roberts Manchester 8d 412
Births Dec 1913 (>99%)
Searle Henry Roberts Stockport 8a 192

Name: James Searle
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1912
Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1912
Age at Death: 0
Registration district: Manchester
Inferred County: Lancashire
Volume: 8d

so sadly looks as though the children died either at birth or soon after.

Sharon Marie, it wouldn't have been 39 years it would have been 17 years if Henry Searle and Edith Roberts are the parents of Margaret and Edith (born 1925 and 1921).

They married 1904. Everything does seem to fit about them, just that gap before the children were born.

Sharon Marie

Sharon Marie Report 18 Apr 2013 16:47

I cant see them waiting 39 years for a child as mum was born 1943 ;-)

Thanks marie celeste, I seem to have moved forward with my paternal side but this 1 is not so easy, I will purchase my grandmothers b cert as it should have have her father on ....i am not sure why it was long time before they were born

MarieCeleste

Just a quick visit - Sharon Marie, I'd strongly recommend that the certificate you buy is the birth certificate of your grandmother.

Just because Margaret and Edith's mother's maiden name is shown as Roberts on their birth record doesn't mean that the marriage was between a Searle and a Roberts. If the mother had been married before then the marriage would have been between Searle and whatever her married name was (although births would show the maiden name).

Bearing in mind that a lot of young women lost their husbands in WW1 there's the possibility of a remarriage.

I'm curious about the 1911 that Vicci posted, the names seem to fit but why was it such a long gap before the daughters were born?

Right guys I have just treated myself to my paternal great grandfathers marriage cert, would really like to get to grip with this side too. I know that Margaret and Edith's mother was a Roberts that married a searle ...not sure which there first names were or year of marriage ...

Sharon Marie,
Have you got access to the censuses so that you can work back with the correct family once you have some birth and marriage certificates to confirm?
