Gotcha!

What a great forum this place is; I've learned so much over the last couple of days!

As well as the website 192.com for tracing electoral rolls,there is also http://www.searchelectoralroll.co.uk/  which occasionally gives an age.

It is a very common or common surname?

Some names are easier to narrow down than others.

Good luck

Hi Selwonk,

I was just thinking...................was the place you were born (if not at home), close to the address of your mother or was it a distance away ?

Deleted post...................forgot you already have your mother's birth cert.

It was on the same street. 

We have a great deal of information on my Mother including date of birth, birth address etc. What we have been struggling with is trying to find out a) if she married and b) if she did, what her married name is.

We think we might have a breakthrough. With the kind assistance of a RootsChat member we think we've established that we had the wrong year of birth for my Maternal Grandfather. We now think we have found his death record in the index so we're planning to order that an see where that takes us. It's possible that my Mother may be noted on the certificate which would establish her new surname if she married.

That's exactly how I found out my relative had been married as I mentioned in an earlier post.
If not your mother on the cert.................she may have had siblings & one of them was the informant so either way it would be a help & hopefully not registered by a stranger (from a care home or such) which I've had & is a dead end
