Hi everyone, i know i could probably find what i want by sending for certs but i just dont have the money at the moment also not sure where to get it from as i dont know a place of birth, so if anyone can find any info it would be great.... I have tried to find any info on my nan (Cathrine) dob 4 June 1938, died May 2002 at St Helens, Mersyside. Her married name was Mudge, married abt 1958 Q2, but can't find her anywhere as i dont know her maiden name and have no idea of her parents names. Thank you for reading this. Denise.

My grandads name is Vincent B Mudge, dob 1935 Q2 born Chelsea. Denise

Denise what was your Grandfathers first name/names? I think the only way you are going to get anywhere with this is to find their marriage on the full index and send for the certificate. I know you say you cannot afford certificates and I know what that is like but if you can send for just this one it will give you your Grandmother's maiden name plus both your Grandmother's and Grandfather's Father's names. You will then be able to find your Grandmother's birth and possibly more information on her parents. Christine

Denise, do you have the birthdate and name of any of their children - that should give us mother's maiden name/ Jim

Hi Denise Is this the right couple ???? Catherine Rogan Vincent Mudge, married Jun Q 1958 Liverpool S ref 10d page 185 Gosh weren't we all quick finding it ?? Di

Hi Denise, There were 2 'Mudge' marriages in Q2 of 1958, but only 1 with a Catherine:- Vincent B. Mudge to Catherine Rogan in Liverpool S. District, Ref:- 10d 815. So I then checked to see if Catherine Rogan was born in 1938. There is a Catherine Rogan born in Q2 1938 in the Liverpool N District, Ref: 8b 942, with a Mother's maiden name of Hallahan. Do any of these names tie up with any information you have from your family? It may be foolish to just accept the above without sending for certificates to confirm. You may find the certificates for free on the BMDshare website; worth a try! Hope this helps, but wouldn't work on this without other back-up to confirm first. Susan

There are 3 children, Janette, Ian & Ann my mum her dob is 14 March 1960 but i found out that my mum was born in Saudi Arabia my grandad must have been in some sort of forces the thing is i dont know if my mum is the eldest or not and all 3 may have been born in different countries and if so i dont know where i go from there or how i get hold of their certs....

Yes your info sounds right, Rogan came up before but my grandads mothers maiden name was Grogan so i just thought it was some sort of mix up with spellings. i dont know how you do it i search for ages but never find anything i am looking for. Thank you, Denise
