Hi tommo

You now need to ask a specific question, that does not cover the old ground in your previous posts.  It is not fair on those who sepnd their time doing look-ups to go over things time and again.

What you are trying to establish is very important to you and genuinely interesting to others BUT you need to capitalise now on the information you already have.  Have you tried sending for any certificates or looking on 1837 online ?

Please let us know what you have found out since your last post and what new info you need.  Many of us will be only too pleased to help with new lines of enquiry.

kind regards, Arranroots  ;)l

Well tommo, you seem to be making some progress with this!

It is a good idea to set out what you know, both to clarify your own thoughts and to help us out - there is a lot to get our heads around!!

I understand it is Dorothy's birth that you are trying to clarify the details of?  Have you got a birth cert for her now?  I saw on another post that you think the father is BIRTWHISTLE?

I had a look for BIRTWHISTLEs in the Monmouthshire, Gloucestershire areas in 1901, but there are none.  A lot could have changed between 1901 and Dorothy's conception!

Is there anything else we can look for to help you?

kind regards, Arranroots

i am also looking to find the dates of death for all the family can you help me with that please

[Arranroots]

Hi tommo

First you need to check www.freebmd.org.uk to see which of the family's deaths appear on the site.  Narrow it down by looking inthe counties you know they lived in and using the approximate dates you already know. You are lucky!  PIDSLEY is already an unusual name, so you have an advantage.

Having checked for those, if you still can't find them, you can post a very specific request along the lines of "looking for the death of Dorothy PIDSLEY around 1903" (or whatever) and ask for a BVRI2 look-up.  These are done for people whose names are not already available on freebmd.

If the names are not on BVRI2 either, you will need to use the pay-per-view site www.1837online.com to try to find them.

I hope this helps,
