Trying to find details of children for Ada Elizabeth Ward born 25/11/1893 in Northampton. She married my Great Grandad Willam Haywood on 19/10/1918. They had one daughter together Hazel Joyce, but believe Ada was married before, as marriage cert says HILL. I think Hazel had half brother and sister (from Ada's first marriage) but I am unable to find then. Any help appreciated.

Thanks. I think it's right. I vaguely remember my nan talking about a sister Edie! Her brother must have been a Haywood then.
Thanks

Your very helpful. I reasonably new to all this, so it's a great help. Can you advise how I check? Will it be via BDM's?
