hi
As I have plenty of time on my hands!
Iam working on my Fathers side Family History.. and have a few basic questions
1) on free BDM I can find a marriage for Mr Great Grandmother - Annie Guyett (ne Shortland) in Brentford Sept 1903. but why cant find one for my Great Grandfather (Jesse Guyett? Sept 1903)
Also I found marriage entry for a Annie Shortland in West Bromich for the same period.. why is this?
I though there would be 2 entries one for my Great Grandfather & one for my Great Grandmother under her maiden name??(in the saem area Brentford) or does it not work like this?
2) My Grandfather left a memories for his early years in Hounslow and mentions that Annie (his mother) had 4/5 sisters ( Eliza & Sarah where two) (my father remembers Sarah)
but I can find only one Birth Entry for Annie in June 1885 in Dudley while both Sarah & Eliza seem to be up younger & are both are born in Brentford.. perhaps they are Cousins? , is it best to get this certificates.
any help would be great.. and would joining a web site help
