White family
« on: Tuesday 23 January 24 15:47 GMT (UK) »
Hello
I am not sure which board this should be on --hope this one is  ok.
Minnie May White is shown on the 1901 census for Hessle Yorkshire as a 20 year old servant born Runcorn.
From the 1939 Return a DOB of 29 May 1891 is given. However I cannot  find an entry for that date on the GRO indexes. ( She died 1970 in Nottinghamshire)

On 12 Aug 1911 she marries Joseph Dunbabin ( b 18/4/1884) a Navy Ganger in Scotland. Wedding at St Peters Epizerpal church Inverkeithing . Record on Scotland's People.  Her address is given as Hessle Yorkshire which ties in with the 1911 census return. No trace of her on a 1901 return. Her marriage record
 shows the parents of Minnie as Thomas White a Navy Ganger and mother a Jane White nee Sharp.
One of the witnesses was a Rose White who could be a sister . The other witness was a William Hodgkinson.
from searching on line there is a possible marriage of a Thomas White and Jane Sharp in 1883  in Stockton Durham . If correct possible there were a number of children by 1891 when Minnie is born.
I have been unable to find Rose Whites birth.

I would appreciate help in finding Thomas ,jane and Rose and any records.(I can trace Minnie and Joseph forward )
At a loss  as to why i can not find any records for her parents.
thank You .

Maybe he was Thomas John or vice versa. 

Children are born all over the place so that could fit with being a Navvy.

 Thank you  . Yes  on reading again from Marriage cert for Minnie it could well be Navvy. You may well have made a breakthrough . Sorry yes did mean the 1911 census.
I found one possible Christening that may be Minnie in Cheshire --baptised 27 March 1893 at Chester.
Parents a Thomas and Jane White.
