Can anyone help. I think I have found an aunt I did not know I had but am not sure I am correct. Her name is Mary Jones (1920). My mother Doris Jones (1928) and aunt Elsie Jones (1924) were born in Ashton under Lyne. Parents Elizabeth Noton and Albert Jones.
I would be grateful for any info relating to Mary Jones and any other possible siblings.
I appreciate it's like looking for a needle in a haystack but any help
gratefully received.
Many thanks

to check for any births of other achildren after 1928, you will have to search the Complete Index on ancestry.co.uk ..... a long job to search quarter by quarter, year by year, especially with JONES!

freebmd is www.freebmd.org.uk


It's a site where volunteers are entering all the births marriages and deaths in England and Wales from the start of registration on July 1 1837 to 1983 (bmds from 1983 are already on the web). They are currently upto about 1925, depending on the area, but there are new records every day.

It is THE site to check for bmds!

and


best of all


it is FREE!
