Hi Yvonne, You have the birth date of your mother-in-law and know the area so it should be quite easy to purchase a copy of her Birth Certificate from the relevant Registry Office. It will cost £6.50 plus a stamped addressed envelope. The certificate will give the name of her mother and her father and the place they lived. There are offices for Caernarvonshire at Aberconwy, Bangor, Caernarvon and Dwyfor which is in Pwllheli. It should be easy to get the phone numbers from Directory Enquiries. I have the address if you want them. I have found the Welsh Registrars of B.M.D. extremely helpful.. I don't know how far you are from Portsmouth or Aldershot as there are Family History Centres of the Latter-day Saints in those places. You would be able to look at Births, Marriages and Deaths on the films for the whole of the British Isles. I have the phone numbers if you want them as you have to make an appointment.
