Can anyone help me as I'm looking for a lady who was born in1901 Her Name was Annie Lancaster. I think she got married to Arthur Bell in1936. She had two children to mr Bell. But my Father was not the child of mr bell. She had my dad before she got married. I'm just trying to find my half auntie and uncle. please can anyone help. Oh Annie came form Hulme in Manchester. :-( :-(

Check freebmd for accurate info.........no need to 'think' when she married

The marriage will be on there...........plus any children of the marriage

I hope you've looked in 'search trees' to determine whether any other GR member is researching the family..........

www.freebmd.org.uk shows the two children you refer to, born 1939 and 1941. Do a search in Lancashire for births to surname Bell, mother's maiden name Lancaster.

I found it yesterday, but didn't post, because I do feel that people should find their own info, where possible (and this is)........so much better for them to do so

If you're not sure of the marriage to Mr Bell, how do you know who her parents were? Did you father live with them?

Thankyou Rose, My father lived with his grandmother, Annie's mother. Sha apparently married when my father was a young boy, so my father took his mothers maiden name.
Its just that my sister remembers that our mother said that she believed Annie married a man named Bell. Thats all I Know, so I believe I have relations of my Grandmother. Thankyou

The Arthur Bell marriage would make Annie 36 when she married. What year was your father born?

Eileen Report 3 Oct 2011 01:04

my father was born in 1925 but annie was not young when she married for the first time that is why my father did not live with his mother taking her maiden name my dads name was Harold.
