Unfortunately I don't have much to go on. She is the only one in the family that we don't have any details on at all. The census gives me the place of Birth and the Birth certificate for the son gives the rest of the details.

I appreciate the help but it may have to go down as unsolvable

Thank you Those are the correct records. There is always a chance he was never married I have searched many sites and documentation but have never found anything.
I've had difficulty tracing her family records as well. Its very difficult with limited information

Thank You

Family History Beginners Board / Looking for Assistance Re Margaret Chapman and Edward Parkinson

I have Edward Parkinson born around 1827 and died 1896  I have Edward and Margaret showing up on the 1861 register as married. Their Son James Edward was born around 1956.

I cannot find any record of the marriage. I have checked every source i can think of and would appreciate any assistance in locating it or even where else to look

Margaret was born around 1833 in Manchester and died 1866 in Pontypool

After Margaret died he remarried Emma Watkins In 1868  in Pontypool

World War One / RAF WWl

Good Morning
I have recently found out that my great grand father Arthur Parkinson served in the RAF towards the end of WW1 he signed up August 10 1918 his service number was 284316 and reference number is  AIR 79/2476/284316. The national archives told me that the records have been digitized and are available through FindmyPast. Unfortunately i do not have access to this site. Could someone with access help me out. I would be interested in some details. I do not believe he was in the service long as the war was coming to a close and he had already started a family

The Raymond born in 1890 was Patrick's brother he died in 1917 in France, the only missing piece i had was Patrick's family and i think what you have all helped with bring me close.

from My fathers Notes Winnie did marry and my father though moved to the NE but he didn't know who, Janet married and moved closer to Manchester and Edgar married and raised a family in Brecon 

I have a Jane born in Durham in 1912 to a Morris which is possible, but no Winnie.
Winnie could have been a nick name or a middle name I've found several that changed names on census reports and from birth certificate
