If you go by the names you have you should be able to go back by using 1837online (admittedly a paid site) or the GRO index otherwise free or your local LDS centre. Here is the website for 1837 http://www.1837online.com/Trace2web/LogonServlet where you can search for births,marriages and deaths,1837+ Also overseas and other births too quite useful. Hope it helps,Linda & Tony Hi Linda & Tony Thanks very much. Any suggestions on how I can trace this family in this time period after 1945? Joan
