well all i am aware of is my family came from birmingham. as do i. many years ago i was told that my grand mother was kate compton/crompton her mother was hogg her maiden name.so i sent off for birth death and marrage certificates but all came back no trace. even my mothers birth and death cert came back no trace. so i looked on the internet all differant sites for these names. i found two has i mentioned which was either coincidental or must be the ones and thats what im going on. at the moment.but trying to find james compton is a pain i did find a elizabeth mcconol hogg born 1870 and married a james henry compton in 1895.

You really need to try and get some definates before you try to go back too far otherwise you could be wasting a lot of time and money.
What were yor parents names?  You say you have had no luck with your mothers birth or death certificates - what was her name - maybe someone here can help and then you would have a good starting point.
