Try freebmd, surname in the surname box, her maiden name in the lower box, and see what you can see.


( looks like one daughter- see if you can find it)

thanks to all for your help. Not seen the probate details until now. I've got Dad's birth cert . so its definitely the correct parents. My next step would be to search for any children of Dorothy and John. Once again thanks all.

Thanks so much for the info. I met Aunt Dorothy just once.That was at my fathers funeral. They were twins, though perhaps you know this already.At that point in my l
life I wasn't interested in family history.To my regret I never knew my father's family.
Thanks again

Hi Christine
She married John T P Frith in the March quarter of 1957 in Chesterfield.

What is it that you are looking for?

My aunt was born Dorothy May Roulson in October 1922. I think she married in 1957 to a gent with the surname Frith . Any help gratefully received
