Serena - we use many different websites

Basics are
freebmd - https://www.freebmd.org.uk - free to use for bmd's Q3 1837 - around 1970's (eventually to 1983 I think it's work in progress)

https://www.freereg.org.uk - free to use. Parish bmd's, coverage not complete

GRO - https://www.gro.gov.uk - free to use. Very useful now it gives mmn for births from Q3 1837 through to 1917 (only available from Q3 1911 elsewhere)

https://www.familysearch.org - free to use. Need to register. Many old parish records and lots more

https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk/#wills - free to use, to search for probate records - may give clues

Find My Past and Ancestry - need to pay to join but each have same/similar and different records. May lead to parish records and loads of other records.

FMP has the 1939 register

If you don't have access to some, then as you've found out, folks on here are willing to help

There are many more, but those should keep you going for a while

Serena ,Joseph and family are not the right ones I don't think, their daughter was Ann not Hannah ( though of course they may be related somewhere along the line)

The Bettridge /Tucker family is the one I posted 1841 census for,

It seems possible parents died as I am not finding them in 1851, difficult to be sure as there are so many variations in spelling the name ( Note found in 1851 spelling Betrage)

this is one of the daughters though, Emma in 1861

My dad was born in India. His mum was Italian born in India and his dad was half Indian and English born in India. I know nothing of my great grandparents on my dad's side. How would I go about finding out anything. I guess it's going to be very hard. Xxx :-(

Rambling

Rambling Report 6 Jan 2018 21:18

Might be something online for India Serena. Especially as you say your dad's father was half English, ( could perhaps show up in "British Nationals Born Overseas " records ) if you want to put some names someone will take a look around and point you in the right direction :-)

Families were certainly big sometimes, I have just been trying to work out how my grandfather's parents managed to fit all 13 of their children in a small house lol.

Oh OK I will ask. Shall I ask here or start a new thread. ...

Oh wow. 13. Families were alot closer then I think. Or rather did things as a family more. Xxxx

Rambling

Rambling Report 6 Jan 2018 22:23

I think it might be best to start a new thread, and perhaps put "India records" in the heading so someone with experience of searching them will see it.

I wouldn't usually advise starting a new thread in case info is duplicated but as it's a different side of the family and in a specific location ( and not connected as we now know to the name in the title of this thread) it might be easier. :-)
