Hi, I have searched this site and although have found similar questions, I cannot find anything that may help with my enquiry. I'm not asking for anyone to do my work for me (Although it would be nice ), just be kind enough to help or point me in the right direction.
I am registered with Ancestry and am researching my Great Grandparents.
I know nothing about them, and have just recieved their marriage certificate.
I am trying to ascertain as much information about them, but know nothing. The only information I know is on the certificate.
If I may, this information is as follows:
Certificate of Samuel Leslie Nicholls - DOB 5/1/1921 born 46 Well Lane, Wednesfield.
Father - Thomas Henry Nicholls - Coal Miner (Hewer)
Mother - X = The mark of Emily Nicholls Late Horton formerly Smith.
I am (rightly or wrongly) possibly presuming her maiden name was Smith and possibly married a Horton then a Nicholls (If indeed they got married).
I am so lost, I'm relatively new to Geneology I've spent the last 3 days researching Ancestry, this and various forums.
I would be so grateful if anyone is able to offer any advice or help. Indeed if I find out I'm a local Earl or Landowner I'd be happy to share.
Thankyou and Kind Regards
Matt
