Title: Children
Post by: baloo on Monday 06 April 20 11:57 BST (UK)
Hi. Can anyone help. I have been trying without success to find if there were any children born to Harry Fred Harvey and Nellie Caroline Adams.
They were Married 1941 in Hastings East Sussex. Nellie was my 1C 1R
 Many thanks

If there were children then they should appear on freebmd. 

As they are likely to still be living we cannot post details.

Rootschat has a no living persons policy so children born after 1941 could still be alive

You can use freebmd to search for any children

If Nellie was previously married - Adams would be her married surname.  However - any children born to the 1941 marriage would show under her birth (maiden) name and not Adams

(eg). Nellie Bloggs marries Joe Adams
Joe dies and Nellie remarries
Children born to second marriage would show mmn as Bloggs

It does help if you give the right surname

He was Harry F Hardy - not Harvey

B 17.1.1904 Hastings died there 1972

Nellie b 1909 died 1968

Births March qtr 1909 
Adams    Nellie Caroline     Hastings    2b   21

Harry left a will which you can download for £1.50 - may name children

There was another Hardy/Adams marriage in 1948 in Sussex so the 2 births from 1950 are probably from that marriage
