 Thanks for trying but john william mace was born in west ham, or london i cannot find his birth details to order a copy of the certificate. The whole family are very difficult to find as they never seem to appear together.Has any one out there got any other ideas, please respond.

You could try reversing the forenames when searching for them on the census.
I have a Hobbs family which did just that it was only through ordering the certificate that i managed to work out it was the correct family.

James Harry was listed as Harry James
Sarah Gertrude listed as Gertrude Sarah
Charles Harold listed as Harold Charles.

etc

West Ham is a large area to check can you narrow it down a little?
