Just checking, Clare..........have you actually viewed the images? Also, the marriage could have been a while after the child's birth............ Reg

Your best bet is to try and find those to narrow down the marriage date. Any chance May was married before? Rose

Did you get a page for every quarter on Ancestry? You need to make sure there are no missing quarters. Rose

The link for that particular site is: http://www.bmsgh.org/wmbmd/ And this link: http://www.ukbmd.org.uk gets you to a site with well-organised lists of links, including both that one, and one which allows you to search a whole lot of Local BMD sites at once. Christine

I think the finding of a result is the main reward. (That's what I find so addictive about this hobby!) But I'm glad it's what you wanted - and that the extra llinks look like being useful to you. Cheers Christine
