Hi

Providing the people are not still living we will need a lot more information

Full names
Birthyears
Birthplaces - who was from Essex and who was from Middlesborough

Childrens names and birthyears/birthplaces

If any were born before 1881 - have you checked the 1881 census which is free to search yourself at www.familysearch.org

If any would be on the 1911 census - have you checked

Hi Snuggles

I certainly hope it will be worth it!  Cheesy

Have you got their marriage certificate?

Marriage

June quarter 114

Laura J JAGGER
Thomas GIBBONS


Woolwich 1d 2205


That should help you to locate them in the 1911 census, as Carole recommends - it is pay per view.  Once you have that, give a shout if you need assistance to go back further.

Kind regards, Arranroots  Wink

Other Jagger entries for Dover are as follows:

William 1861 possibly dad
Sarah b 1866 - possibly mum
Alfred b 1909
Elsie b 1904 (Elsie May b Dover)
George 1907 b Dover
Ivy - 1 week old
John 1900
