David Report 6 Feb 2009 22:56

Hi, wonder if anyone could help me trace my Gt gran. Ada Blyth Jackson. I see on IGI she was born York 1881 daughter of Frances. Wedding cert shows her father as Thomas Walter Blyth Jackson. She married Gt Grandad in 1904 Scunthorpe, but I can't seem to find her on any census's. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am really scratching my head on this on.

Hi, I have just received the Birth Cert for Thomas Walter Blyth Jackson, born 5th July 1857 in Edgefield. His mother is Ann Jackson but there is no father listed. I guess my next step is to try and find out if the John Jackson on the 1861 Census had a daughter called Ann. All good fun :)
