Find Ancestors

So now if we can find a marriage to a Bert/Bertie Wicks and a Simpkins we've about cracked it. do you think they married in luton too? **he was a Bertie, not a Herbert- found his birth ref earlier Any chance Chris...?

7th november was dot's b'day

Adam, My geography is hopeless ! Is Dorothy the ONLY child you know about ? or could she be the eldest or youngest of more than one ? Trying to guage of possible year of marriage for Bertie and Mum ! Dancer X 7th November would tally with Victors find ... I think you will find that she was born 7th November 1918 ...... and registered within the Dec qtr of that year.

I'm waiting on Adams reply re children before I search .... hopefully Victor can get in touch as well .. and we can share this one between us all Dancer x

bertie was only 13 in 1901 and dot born when ?(sorry cant remember , should have looked) so guess they didn't marry much before her birth. (stupid System has knocked out D O T born when before the ?)

who would i apply to for the birth certificate?

How do I know that Victor is on 1837online !!!! He is such a darling with his credits Dancer x

Adam, Its quicker and CHEAPER to apply online: Here's the GRO internet address: (General Register Office) in Southport http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates .... £7 online £8.50 by phone or post Dancer x

still waiting for info on siblings....shouldn't be long

OK ! Its best that we search with ALL the information to hand, or we could spend ages looking in the wrong years ! Dancer x Just nipping to get a drink ... NOTHING on FreeBMD 1906 - 1912

Only child, guys....oh, and ta for the certificate info :-)

OK, Chris ...I'll do March & June 1818 ... Dancer x

No Bert/Bertie Wicks marrying in March or June 1818. Dancer x

1818 would be a bit early......her name may have been rose,

what u found?....sounds eciting

Adam- if Dot was born in 1918, we would normally guess them to have married before she was born. do you know otherwise? jess

Johnathan i have a whole stack of Simkins girls in luton lined up ready when we find her christian name!! I feel bad that i can't help on the 1837 front jess

ur prob right jess......all that info......could u break it down poss.......soz, don't mean to be cheeky

Adam, Are you thinking that Dorothy was DEFINATELY born 7th November ... 1919 and NOT 1918. Some folks can get the year of birth WRONG ! even on Death certificates. The information on Death certs is given by someone who knew the deceased ... but maybe they didn't know 100% when they were born. My own Mothers death certificate gives her WRONG date of birth, and her husband gave those details. He was upset at the time and couldn't think straight ! Bear this in mind ... Even the person themselves lost a few years on their age whilst growing old !! Dancer x

dorothy had an uncle called len......and an aunt called minnie (sister to len)
