Hi Nivard She was 5 on 1901 and her birth on 1901 is given as Stockwell I have ordered her birth cert today and its from September qtr 1895 and from Lambeth, hopefully from that I will be able to use her birth to check it against the death records on ancestry, and work back from there But thank you anyway :) Karen
