Been on Ancestry and freebmd and couldn't find a sausage...i'm looking for a marriage between a Ernest Knight and Rose Ethel/Ethel Rose Grainger as far as i know in Portsmouth around the period from the early 1920's up to around 1929.My auntie..their daughter,b 1929..is now not very good in the memory stakes and this is all she could remember..any contributions would be most helpful.
Thank You
Steve

Trying to narrow it down - was your auntie their firstborn or did she have older siblings?
Had Rose been married before? If so - was Grainger her birth maiden name or her previous married name

Ah you got me there Carole....i know she had at least two other siblings...Rose and Ernie..but whether she was the oldest/youngest that remains a problem........fairly certain that Grainger was the birth maiden name though..thank you for your assistance.

I took a look from 1919 to 1930 and I couldn't find a Knight - Grainger marriage.....Do you have your aunt's birth certificate just to verify the maiden name

Thank you mab.....i think i might have found a possible solution to this query........have found a marriage of Rosie E Grainger to a Sidney E Knight qrtr2 1927..got me thinking perhaps he was just " known as" Ernest and didn't use his first name or was just recorded back to front ..all the other info seems to fit,but will make more enquiries..thanks eveyone for your assistance,much appreciated,i'll be back if it's wrong
