O what a tangled and unfortunate family. Thanks for the history. You would think the name Mackereth would be easy but I was amazed at how many there were in the Kendal area. At least 2 of them seem to be called Annie, I think I saw an Annie Eliza & an Annie Elizabeth.

Thank you lancsann, I was going to say it doesn't help when like the Huddart's  they keep changing their name, then noticed I've been spelling yours wrong ;D.. So I now think it possible that Annie wasn't Thomas Mackerth's  daughter and only became a Mackereth  when Thomas and Elizabeth married in 1888,we know from census returns that Annie E, was born Kendal as was her Mother and if I have done my home work right Elizabeth's mother was Eliza Willan ms Smith, Elizabeth also had a sister Eliza, easy isn't it? the only problem then is if Annie was illegitimate and registered as Willan, we then have a choice of 2 or more born Kendal about 1883/ 1885 one Annie Eliza and the other Annie Elizabeth, but if she was registered Mackereth oh well you get the picture ::) . I'm wondering if there will be anything about the children being taken into care , I have the name of the officer a Mr J Reabourne, but nothing has shown up so far. I may have to wait until the 1921 census is released, I can but hope , thanks to everyone for trying , catch you later Nikitah

No problem with spelling my board name wrong. Several people misread it.

Annie Eliza Willan registered Kendal (see post #11).

As she was born 5 years before Elizabeth and Thomas married I would guess you are right in thinking Thomas was not her father and she was just known by his name. Unless a baptism naming a father or a bastardy order can be found I would think yo7 will never know.

Annie Elizabeth Willan b 1885 seems to appear in several census with father George mmm Doggett

I would guess you are going to have to bite the bullet and buy that death certificate. On the evidence so far it seems the most likely. If you are lucky the informant of her death may help.

Sorry if anyone is getting bored with this, I'm back ,I have just found I can order the death certificate from G R O, as a pdf for £6-00 so I wonder if anyone has used this, if the pdf contains all the details, it does say its not an official document, but I'm just looking to verify if its mine or not. It's looking promising as the E is Eliza on The G R O site. Nikitah.

The PDF contains exactly the same information as a full certificate, it just can't be used in an official capacity. I have used the service a few times and found it to be very efficient.

You can order pdf certs online 24/7, so don't necessarily have to wait until Monday.

you still need the registration details but at the end of the ordering process you select the pdf option for £6
