Hi sorry it's taken so long to get back on here!!!! don't get on as often as i like, these are all my nana's relations, i can't find anything prior to this. Thank you for your help !! Dawn x

Dawn, you need to say if you have the marriage cert or not. There will be valuable info on it which will confirm that the 1911 findings above are right, or otherwise. You haven't commented on Albert at all - does his age and occupation fit?

If you look on the Freebmd site there is only one possible birth for Margaret, so if you get this cert it will give you both her parents' names.

Births Jun 1901 (>99%)
Grundy Margaret Bolton 8c 413

No unfortunately i haven't got the marriage certificate, would i have to get to that from Bolton register office, do you know.

Most people order certs online from the GRO (General Record Office) site:

www.gro.gov.uk

They cost £9.25

You need to register and use a credit/debit card, though I think there is a form you can print off if you would rather order by post.

You can also apply in person at the Lancashire certificate centre at Preston Marina and providing you only want one, they do it while you wait.

At a cost of £9.
