The bmd vic site isn't working at the mo. How frustrating
Can't get George's death cert !!
Thankyou Judith, for your advice,
Its as you say, its what is quoted by the informant and recorded by the registrar on the day. Margaret H and GWW were very young when they married, they might not have had any local extended family and so their children's knowledge of their history might have been sparse.
And GWW died at that awful hospital, probably without any family present to register his death. I'll try again tomorrow to get his d/c.
Auntie's beau originally told me his Victorian born mum's history and gave me copies of
his b/c,
his mum's b/c - Elizabeth Ellen Chance 1907,
his mum's parents m/c - Margaret Williams and Job Chance 1899,
Margaret Chance formerly Williams - his mum's mum's d/c 1910.
Margaret Williams' b/c 1879,
Job Chance's b/c 1874
This Margaret Williams is a granddaughter of Margaret Harper and GWW.
I've downloaded 3 marriages and 1 death at $25 a pop to get to the right Margaret Harper.
I shall confer with Auntie's beau if he wants to be laying outfor more than GWW's d/c because he's only missing the ones for his ggp's, 3 x 25 if I leave out the b/c's.
They are not really needed by me to establish relationships, just evidence if desired.
Thanks again, Cando, Judith and Sue,
I shall be printing out this adventure to share with Auntie's beau
Salute,
Janelle
