Suggest you look at the IGI...................I would have thought that would have been the first place to look

To find baptisms for siblings, use the batch number

Shirley - yes that's his mothers second family - have Esther's certs down to her death.

Was hoping to find Isaac's bapt.

Reggie - didn't take note - silly really but my mistake - IGI can't get my heard round it - did try and search there again. :-D

Potty - thank you - have now snipped the record and made it into a doc.

Still not finding IGI easy to use - I know it is supposed to be easy.
Found his sister Esther but no Issac, Bertie, Lilly or Frances

Do you know that you can access a lot of BMD records on-line for Wolverhampton.

This is the link.

http://www.wolverhamptonhistory.org.uk/resources/indexes

I find it a great source for finding ancestors who do not appear on census record.

Hope you find it useful.
