Yes, that was their first child, only lived 2 weeks. Elsie also had 6 stillbirths according to a diary I found of Williams.
Sorry, I had put those details in my first post but then clicked on something else before the post button and lost it all!

I am slightly confused. Were William Beasley and Elsie Amy Wells nee Brooks married to one another at the time your mother was born?

Researching:
Don't put off until tomorrow doing what you can do today. If you like doing it today you can do it again tomorrow. Be kind to your children for it is they who will decide which care home you end up in.

Hello everyone, Im hoping someone may be able to point me in the right direction.

Having been researching my tree online for a couple of years, it struck me that I didnt have an actual birth certificate for my mother. I looked up in the records and just cant find anything which matches, and so Ive begun to wonder if she might have been adopted and either didnt know herself, or chose not to tell us. (Ive tried GR, FMP and Ancestry)

Mum died in July 2009 and as an only child she didnt keep in touch with her aunts and uncles so I have nobody to ask (we were staggered to find that her mothers side of the family was so big!)

Mum was Jean Elisabeth Wells born 23/08/1923 to William Beasley and Elsie Amy Wells (nee Brooks) and baptised on 30/09/1923 at the Weslyan Methodist Church, Stockland Green, Warwickshire. This also confirms her parents names and birth date.

Please can anyone give me any guidence? It would be much appreciated.
Kind regards
Liz
