Hi Pauline, I have tried to get a certificate, but there are 9 Elizabeth Davies born in 1874. They kindly said there was one with father John Davies, but upon getting - not mine! Without knowing for sure the parents, it is difficult to get the certificate - and Im certainly not purchasing the further 8 on a hope. Any ideas? Regards Helen

Hello Helen What clues do you have for the parents? You did suggest John and Elizabeth - but didn't give the source for this. Could one of these be your Elizabeth in 1881?

Helen have you found them in 1881.......you only need the mothers first name hopefully to get you started......were they all from Carmarthenshire?
