Hi I'm having great difficulty finding a person in my family tree, its had quite a few people stumped
Her names May Davis (maiden name foster) shes my grandmothers sister
Born possibly 1922 and died 1980 Hindley, wigan, Lancashire
parents are John and Sarah Ellen (maiden name Disley/Houghton)
Sarah Ellen was possibly born out of wedlock hence the two last names, birth cert it says Disley but on census it says Houghton.
Also on children's birth certs two say mothers maiden name Disley - rest says Houghtons.
Ive found her marriage on line she married a Joseph davis and have found her grave, shes buried with my grandmother Nancy crompton
there mother Sarah Ellen and also her husband Joseph, it says on the grave also Daughters of above,
picture of grave is on line http://billiongraves.com/pages/recor...Davies/6561230
Except for those two events i can not find anything at all, i can find all the rest of the siblings on BMD and have found Baptism info for them,
but nothing what so ever on May, she seems to be a witness quite a lot at some of the marriage events and is god mother to one of her sisters.
Jane
Also anyone any advice on how i can find info on a person when it says Illegitimate' is written in the groom's Father's Name column, born circa 1834.
