Really helpful, thanks. Managed to get a free trial of the newspaper archives... what a tragic story!

Emeltom, Where did you find the Mother's maiden name as Diggles? I can't find any records with that name on it.

Thanks

Wow... thanks for all of your help.

I will take a look through all of this. Are there any other sites other than Ancestry (which I'm using already) that I should be looking at for these records?

Thanks

Hi!

New to the forum so hopefully I'm not breaking any rules.

I am stuck with researching my 2nd great grandmother, Ada Skelland. She was born 25 JUL 1887 and married to William Henry Martin who worked in the Ifton Colliery.

I found marriage record to show they married in 1912 Oswestry and she is also listed in the 1939 register.

Other than that, I just can't find anything. My gran had told me she had worked at Duddleston Hall and she was from Limerick in Ireland originally, but I can't find any evidence of that.

If anyone can help with this I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.
