Hi Christine, It's frustrating waiting for certs to arrive.i tend to order mine in batches. Had 13 arrive last week and I was sooooo excited. I ordered another 13 yesterday. These I am desperate to see!. I had some wonderful help on here the other night regarding my great x 2 grandads family and couldn't help myself had to order the certs to see for myself, estimated dispatch 7th June! it's going to be a long wait :(

Marriage cert should show his father name and occupation, and sometimes wether the father was alive or not Linda

Hi Gail I hadnt considered this. The name on my fathers birth certificate is spelt Mullaney, so I didnt go there, but it is a possibility, Cheers Christine xx

Hi all Im new to this game and think I may be obsessed!! Trying to find details of my Paternal Grandparents, This is what I know (not much really) Thomas Mullaney married Margaret Thompson 1st quarter 1926, in Bradford Yorkshire, they had twelve children-I am ok with this bit-sent for the marriage cert. Thomas Mullaney died Q4 1945 in Bradford aged 42yrs (this fits with family knowledge as he wasnt around when my dad was young) This makes him born in 1903 Ok stick with me I will get there eventually!! This is where it gets complicated and where i am stuck. The only Thomas Mullaney i can find born in 1903 was born in Eccleshall bierlow but later found he also died in 1903. Gosh i hope this makes sense i dont know where to go from here. If you can follow me any tips would be appreciated. Many Thanks Christine
