Hi,

I have a relative called Lydia Such (maiden name, Dickenson).

She was born in 1913 and died in 2013! I know of the children she had, most of them have now died unfortunately. But i was wondering if anyone could find out who her own mum and dad were? Or her siblings? All I've found is her children but I want to try and go further back to see what her younger life was like!

Thank you :)

You'd have to buy her birth cert for mother's name. It doesn't appear that mother was married at the time.

If she was born in Northwich or that general area,,,,,,,she appears to be born to a single parent,unless a Dickenson married a Dickenson of course.
