Find Ancestors

yes, Tenerife sun it is very interesting. I've found no link previous to this census with travellers or show people although we were always told my Dads parents were. I have found descendants of the remaining son still living in caravans on a winter site.
Thanks for your assistance folks.

After 1911, when the MMN was added to the index, only the initial(s) of forename(s) other than the first one are recorded

Similarly, with marriages, which, after 1911, include the spouse surname on the index

You must also allow for spelling variations..............as is illustrated very clearly on the birth and death records of this man

When using freebmd, there is no need to input date info.............

The original of the 1911 is quite interesting it says that his mother Harriet Elizabeth is a widow, who has had 8 children 4 living, Harriet, Susannah, Alfred and Sidney and that the 4 that died were all boys. They were travelling showman, caterers, living in two "living wagons'

Sometimes less is more.
Entering full name of Sidney Mark means it won't show as the record only gives middle initial

from Freebmd's

Thanks, I've just had a look on free bmd and can't even find his death now! I give up for tonigh.

For BMD info between 1837 and approx 1955, you would probably do better to use freebmd...............it's FREE, as the name suggests

Thanks folks, I have gained birth, death and census information from genes but it also had on the left hand side (where births etc can be filtered) one item under military. When I click into this it then says no record. I also thought due to his age and the first world war his death may be linked. I had to give one year leeway to gain his death information. Thanks again

Not sure where you are looking. Is this on genes ?

You say when you completed your search ,are you looking for any census info etc?

hi, please can someone help? My ancestor Sidney mark Twilley, born Middlesbrough 1894/5 died in Middlesbrough in 1918. When I have completed the search it states there is one military record (at the left hand side) but when I click on this it says no record found. I have access to all records so not sure what's happening.
