What is the christian name of the SECKER and BALM that you have, and roughly when were they born? We've no idea if you're talking about the 1950s or 1850s.

hi and welcome, granboat

As you can see there are lots of people willing to help, but we do need  some more info before we can do so!

Where have you found these people? Are the dates you give birth dates? Have you found them on any censuses? Have you any certificates? How have you come across them? Are they linked to each other, or two different families?
what else do you know about them - mariae? children? etc

And what are you wanting to find out about them - are you trying to go further back, or forwards?

Have you found them on 1881 census (free to search) ?

(oooh I see Mort has got Emma for you)
