Welcome to the boards Linda.

You could post some details here and we can see if we can help locate them.

If you have them on the 1901 census then post the details from that or if not give as much information as you can
i.e. full names, when and where born, who their parents were, any siblings/children they had that you know of who would be alive then with ages etc.

You could try using less information on your search.

You could try a wildcard search. For example, if you are searching for John Smith, you could try John Smi*

Or if you want help, post the details here and someone will help you
