Find Ancestors

My Grandparents on my fathers side were Harry Wilcock and Elizabeth Wilcock (Nee Harland Stewart). Their children were Hilda Margret, George (my dad), Harry, Winnie, Elsie and Norman.

I believe they hail from Yorkshire. but have had no success in finding them. Unfortunately the memories of my older family members has faded and they are unable to give me any viable information to follow. I have been advised that the only way to continue my search is to start obtaining birth and death certificates, (an expensive option) So I would be grateful for any assistance I can get which will help me in this search.

Thanks

Derek Wilcock

N.B. There were several Harry (Henry) Wilcock births registered 1899~1901 so you will need to obtain a copy of his marriage certificate to find who is shown to be his father. With that information hopefully you will be able to pinpoint the correct Harry on the 1901 and 1911 census records.

Thank You so much for this information I realy helps.

Derek

Given that Harry named one of his children George I would lay odds on his being born 1900 Jan Q Wharfedale Yorks 9a 147
1901 living Swinton Yorks with parents George and Susannah
But you do need the marriage cert to be sure
