This looks like the birth registration, which could happen the month after the event.
 Eleanor Davison   Birth Registration
Oct-Nov-Dec1901   Volume10B - Page15
Newcastle Upon Tyne   Northumberland

How sure are you on the date of birth. There are two death registration, one in Sunderland but the DOB is 5 April 1901 but I wondered if the one below might be likely?

Eleanor Robson   Death Registration
Oct-Nov-Dec1987   Volume 2 Page 229
Gateshead, Durham   Birth Date 29 Nov 1901

Or this burial?
Eleanor Robson   Burial 1930
Death Date 17 Oct 1930   Affiliate Record Identifier 103512934
All Saints Cemetery   Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear

However she may have remarried or decided to use another name?

Colin

Clarke, Trickett, Orton, Lawless, Norton, Detheridge, Kirby, Goodfellow, Wagstaff, Lowe, etc.

Hi Colin, that is what is on her birth certificate.There are a few possibilities of changing her surname remarrying as you say or even emigrating ? I have tried posting on ancestry before looking for her sisters family and got one possible lead from a lady in Cheshire who was doing some research on behalf of her mother in law (i think), but never got a reply after asking questions, after a few messages????
It's a bit like a needle in a haystack and I've been trying for quite a few years now, I was thinking about paying and agency ?
Thanks for the reply.
Tracy

Following Margaret to start with - this could well be her death:

June 1981
Chippenham
ref 23 1703
Margaret Hodgson Twidale
age 77

Marriage
Ap/May/Jun 1929
Aylesbury
ref 3a 2308
Margaret H Davison / George W T Twidale

Birth indexes show two Twidale births with mums maiden name Davison in 1930 and 1932, so likely to be of this couple.   MAy still be alive so cannot post full details.
Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex

Thank You Liz, That definitely seam to be her sister, I'm sure my dad said her husbands name was George.Is there any possible way to pass on the children names ?
Elizabeth Taylor (the daughter) married Peter Bates, I think, I need to get all of my records out, I just thought I would do a post and not receive such quick responses.

Thank you

Tracy, now you have sent three posts you are able to use the Rootschat private messaging system.

if you click on the circle with the diagram of writing in it under lizdb's name, you will be able to send her a personal message and she may be able to reply with the names she's found.

By the way, if the circle is green, it means the person is online.  I see lizdb isn't on line just at the moment.

Better still Tracyhalpin, you can look up yourself at www.freebmd.org.uk

Just put in 'birth', surname 'Twidale' and mothers maiden name 'Davison'.

You can then use the same site to find marriages for these people. And then for children of those marriages! You have then traced a current generation - and can use other means (facebook, friends reunited, phone books, etc) to try and find them and make contact.
