Possible? Or have you discounted this one on freebmd? You know you can look on freebmd for bmd free :)?

>>>Arnold John James Bethnal Green 1c 351
>>>Harvey Elizabeth Bethnal Green 1c 351
Lock Rose Bethnal Green 1c 351
Stokes John Bethnal Green 1c 351

Only way to be sure is to buy one of the kids birth certs.

Thank you Lindy and Heather, I do have Ancestry Heather but I don't seem to be very good at this, I spend hours searching but don't have a lot of success. I'll keep at though, practice makes perfect (or so they say)!!

Shame. Was hoping it tied in with the marriage :)

Never mind, you have a lead in the kiddies birth cert. Do you know how to buy the certs? GRO online for £7 - using the reference in the bmd index. as above. Never pay more than £7 - there are some con sites that use a similar name to the government GRO and charge up to£50 a cert.
