Hi everybody Is it me Am I doing something wrong ??? Have sent a query on the Record Office site. It now states I have 5 replies However when I try to read them there is no evidence of any . I have asked on Genes HELP page 3 times but no one replies from there .!! Surely if it states I have 5 replies they should be somewhere. Would be grateful for any Help Thanks Marj(Heapy )

Here are your replies marje..........


You need to buy the death certs for that info.

Andy


Her death:
Deaths Dec 1924
Rayner Agnes 8 Prestwich 8d 418
Birth?:
Births Sep 1916
Rayner Agnes Pilling Prestwich 8d 657
So how are her parents Martha Rayner and X Fairburn?
Or is Fairburn his first name?



Just for reference:
RAYNER, Thomas Fairburn Head Married M 33 1878 Wire Drawer Lancashire Manchester
RAYNER, Martha Wife Married 13 years 8 children 5 living F 32 1879 Lancashire Manchester
RAYNER, Harry Son M 12 1899 School Lancashire Manchester
RAYNER, Fairburn Son M 10 1901 School Lancashire Manchester
RAYNER, Arthur Son M 8 1903 School Lancashire Manchester
RAYNER, Doris Daughter F 3 1908 Lancashire Manchester
RAYNER, Jessie Daughter F 0 (1 MONTH) 1911 Lancashire Manchester

RG number: RG14 Piece: 24284 Reference: RG14PN24284 RG78PN1393 RD467 SD6 ED3 SN32
Registration District: Prestwich Sub District:
Bradford Enumeration District: 3 Parish: North Manchester
Address: 34 Euclid St Beswick County: Lancashire



These look like twins:
Births Sep 1904
Rayner Charles Prestwich 8d 340
Rayner Stanley Prestwich 8d 340

Deaths Sep 1904
Rayner Charles 0 Prestwich 8d 245
?
Deaths Jun 1909
RAYNER Stanley 4 Prestwich 8d 286

But you can do further searches in free bmd.
(The area is Prestwich, not Beswick for searches)



Evidently parents are Thomas Fairburn Rayner & Martha Pilling:

Marriages Sep 1898 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pilling Martha Manchester 8d 404
RAYNER Thomas Fairburn Manchester 8d 404

Thank you everybody . I am so pleased I have the replies now. Thank you Andy. Yes Fairburn(my Grandfather)was his first name My Grandmother Martha was nee' Pilling. I believe the Twin boys died very close together so appreciate one died 1904 (that is a possible) but not sure where the 1909 death comes in. I do know the District is Prestwich not Beswick (this was their home address)I have all the relatives you kindly listed.It was just a mystery re. the twins I will now order death certs. Also thank you Janet... I normally click on my name or subject when I see (replies) & with that I can read any I. clicked on other peoples as a test & theirs were there quite clearly , but not mine. However I will do Thread in future. You can tell I'm not that experienced Thanks All Again Marje
