have searched the freebmd for every marriage in kent between a william walter and an ann, nothing that looks likely. More I look more I think it is mills, but I am sure a lot of that is wishful thinking on my part for you Liz.......hate this when this happens, it has happened to me and even the GRO couldn't make head nor tail of it not the local RO!!

Liz, One of my lot have four children before they married eleven years after the first child was born, so dont let that put you off. I agree with dea though last letter looks like a r on both Fuzzy x

Elizabeth Report 29 Jul 2006 13:06

Fuzzy, I had discounted this one, as I wasn't convinced that the maiden name was mills, also by this time, they had 3 children. Liz

Just as a suggestion to the problem re the certs Either ring the GRO (if the certs were GRO issued) or ring the local Register office and enquire what the register says. Either way when you buy a cert it's not much use if you can't read the details on it,isn't the reason for the cert to learn from the contents? Armed with dates,places and names i would be tempted to enquire with the relevant local office to see if they could help. Glen

Liz, I found this marriage right district and everything,,,,,,,but does it look like mills..... View Record Anne Mills 1870 Oct-Nov-Dec Hollingbourne Kent View Record William Walter 1870 Oct-Nov-Dec Hollingbourne Kent Trouble is both certs look quite different!! one could be mills poss but the other no!! OOOh what you think? Fuzzy

Still nothing through at my end. Tinsel can be quite hard to maintain.The trick is to stick with quality tinsel for posh trips,and the 99p Woolworths offers for everyday use,dressed up with baubles to suit the mood. Christmas trees make an excellent wardrobe too. Glen

Gosh, how my mind wanders when I'm waiting........... How do you wash tinsel knickers?........Can you put them in the washing machine?.......... Do you add softener to the detergent? (and does it help?)...........Do you have at least 2 pairs ?.(for modesty + hygiene reasons).......... Do they go all shrivelled and curled up if you put them in the 'tummbey-dryer'?........... Has your tinsel tarnished yet?..... Off to check my e-mail again. Dea x
