Find Ancestors

Wow, thank you so much for all that information it will be a great help. I have been looking through my notes and I cannot find out where I got that date of birth for Alice. The family in the 1901 & 1911 census are correct for my "Lennons" . Robert Dick j1899 was my Grandfather. I am forever grateful , Carol

According to 1911, Robert & Alicia had been married for 20 years, and had had 5 children, all still living in 1911.

I don't see their marriage, nor any birth for Robert.

Thanks AG for the link to the site

Daughter Mary Alice:

As Alice is called Alicia in some of the children's birth records, and the censuses say she was born in Co Down, maybe this is her birth, rather than the Belfast birth:

Are you absolutely sure your Alice was born 24/03/1865, Carol?
Do you have her death or other cert stating that?

Alice's birth ??:

The censuses say Alice was born in Co down - but the birth was in Belfast, if that's the correct one. DOB matches what you say.

Have you considered obtaining a copy of the marriage certificate?

If they knew their father’s, the names will be recorded

Where did you find Alice’s DOB?

Alice was born in Co.Down 24/03/1865 but I cannot find parents or siblings.Alice married Robert Dick Lennon who was born Co.Antrim 1860 again cannot find parents or siblings.
