I have very little information about the third child of my great-aunt on my father's side. My great aunt was Beatrice Mary Roberts born 1904, married to Fred born c1910. They had two sons, Kenneth born 1924 & Dennis born 1926. My dad says they had a daughter in approx 1934 (he just remembers her being younger than him and he was born in 1932).

The family lived in Liskeard, Cornwall. Fred was a slaughterman.

I know not having a first name makes it difficult but does anyone have any ideas on how I might find her?

Children? Born in Cornwall. If they had more, then they might have been born elsewhere, or did they adopt?

Thanks Andy. I'd found the marriage. I don't think Laurence & Frederick are theirs. My dad remembers Kenny & Dennis and a daughter. I'm fairly sure they didn't leave Liskeard so she would have been born there.

Just realised Fred Roberts couldn't have been born in 1910 - I always was rubbish at maths!
