the children in 1861 are given p.o.b. Isle of Alderney (instead of Guernsey) as p.o.b.

so if you are looking for birth reg -it may be as well to look in Alderney as well as Guernsey

hopefully this is the right family 

It looks like Amelia's parents were Issac Robins and Emma

most probably Emma was Emma Bargery -and so will be daughter of mary -and sisters Sarah and Mary (the family in 1851 census)

What you need is the marriage cert or record of Isaac Robins to Emma to confirm

possibly this marriage took place on Guernsey or Alderney

Ok thank you so much
it all sounds right really appreciate all your help as I have said cannot believe how quickly you have found all of this
so would I be right in assuming p.o.b.stands for place of birth

sorry - I didn't explain abbreviations very well

p.o.b. =place of birth
y.o.b. = year of birth

I'll have alook back further

[suzard]

you really need marriage cert to confirm we are on the right path

may be worth putting a post just to find marriage reg - possibly in Guernsey - post y.o.b. and p.o.b. of first child -and state that you already have them in census (saves duplicate look ups)
