Hi
It's been awhile since i have been on, but I have found out this information below this IS my grandmother, the DOB is spot on and the other connections ring true. I have the birth cert, she was born on South Marsh Street in Whitehaven, but it also shows no father, her mother was a Margaret Bell, a Domestic Servant, is there anyway i could find my G Grandmother?,she does not show on the 1901 census at that address.
Thanks
Anne
