Thank you to all the researchers who have helped me. Yes I have now found my sister Jean (although deceased) and I am in contact with her family.

Which marriage cert. did you order?

Does her birthdate match with what I sent you?

When you order the certificate just use the middle initial and not Marjory. Her middle name seems to listed as Marjorie in the references I found. If you specify Marjory and it doesn't match you will not receive the certificate.

Thank you for the research I have requested a copy of the marriage certificate to make sure that this is my Jeanand i will post if correct or not. Fingers crossed it is the correct one.

Joonie,

Haven't heard from Doreen but I'd say no further assistance is needed.

Rose, is this confirmed info (passenger list, bmd, current contact info ...) that means no further assistance is needed?

I'll stop looking if so :-)

Doreen,

It appears she moved to the US. I will send you the news in a PM.

after 1910, there are 3 Jean M Kane births and 4 Jean M Kane marriages

in one of your threads you said

'Trying to find my sister Jean Marjory Asbury. Married Norman E Asbury in 1974 in Birmingham.'

did you know this from purchasing the marriage certificate (to see the age and the father's name) or was this a guess?

have you ruled that out now?

As you mention 'previous searchers' does this mean that you already have a thread about Jean?

Rather then start a new one, it would be better to add to the original. That way people can look back over the research and suggest alternatives.

You can find a list of all the threads you've added to in My Threads under the Tools heading to the left of this page

Added - Billy and Bobbie Irvine seem to have been professional ballroom dancers. A brief internet search doesn't mention anything about a Troupe, but that doesn't mean to say your sister is wrong

I am trying to find my sister Jean Marjory KANE born in Middleborough in 1942.
She is not Jean Peters who previous searchers on this site have found.
My older sister seems to remember that Jean joined a dance troupe in the 1960s called Bill and Bobby Irvine.
I hopethat this helps.
Thank you
