Possible Birth Reg for Gertrude Stead/Edwards
« on: Tuesday 23 June 20 12:28 BST (UK) »
Hi
I'm trying to find a possible birth/baptism for Gertrude Stead/Edwards b 21 Nov 1879 Nottingham.

I've posted previously in Lancashire as that is where she ended up.

https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=832316.0

I have no records for her from birth to 1st marriage in 1904

Two marriage certificates state Father as
William Edward Stead - Deceased - Tailor
William Edwards - Deceased - Tailor

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks :)

Hi

There are 3 pages of replies on the previous thread & all avenues explored in both counties - Lancs & Notts without success

Unfortunately - posting again will not achieve a different outcome as it is clear from the replies that there is no birth reg for her

She is not found on any census prior to 1911 which is an indication she was not known as Stead prior to her marriage.

There is also the possibility she was not actually born in Notts - just brought up there so assumed she was born there

No apology necessary - Nothing more frustrating than not being able to find an ancestor
