Hello,
I am trying to find a birth record for one of my ancestors (Margaret Jane Morris) according to her Marriage certificate she was born around 1852 and her father is names Charles. I'm presuming she lived in Manchester before marriage as her and her husband (Cornelius Townson Marr-1873) were married in Manchester and Cornelius is not from around there.
I thought i had found her birth, but the certificate came back with a different father (Samuel). I can't seem to find any record of her and i don't know her mothers name. I have tried looking at the census record for the address from 1871 to see if that helped but it doesn't appear to exist.
The GRO index only has 1 Margaret Jane Morris for around that time which is the incorrect one.
Does anyone have any tips on how i could find something about her, ideally her mothers name so i can continue to research back.
Thanks in advance
