Simon Report 18 Oct 2008 14:45

I'm trying to find out about my maternal grandfather David Evans, who lived and died in West Kirby, married Edith Gwen Youds, father of Judith Ann Evans(d). I know he was an accountant in the Wirral area.
I know nothing about where he was born, his relatives etc.

If anyone could assist, it would be much appreciated.

You need to start by getting his marriage cert, this will give you his age and fathers name and occupation, you can then look for his birth, birth cert will have his mothers name and maiden name, once you have these you can then use the census info to progress

When was Judith born? This will give you a place to start looking for David and Edith's marriage. The marriage cert should give you David's age, then you can look for a birth.

Do you know where Edith came from? I have found this birth. Bromley is in Kent:

Births Mar 1909 (>99%)
Youds Edith Gwendoline Bromley 2a 567
