Ernest SEDGEBEER b circa 1896. Emily REED b 1896 Devon.
Marriage recorded O/N/D 1920 Cardiff 11a 1135.

I am unable to find any subsequent records eg offspring or deaths of Ernest & Emily. Can anyone help / advise as I have spent hours going through BMD without success?

do you know that they had children ?
on FreeBMD putting in both surnames may find births that may be their children

looks like quite a few with a spelling difference

Not for sure - really fishing in the dark on this particular relative. They both came from large families - so just guessing that they in turn may have children.

I have only searched by the one surname - I didn't realise you could enter both simultaneously.

I have found multiple REED family graves at Llandaff Cathedral and have traced Emily to Cardiff in 1911 and 1920 - but then loose all record of her post marriage.Struggling to find a death.

possible family?

Wow Shirley - thats brilliant - I've looked for hours without success. Emily had a sister called Emily - so it may link in with daughter born in 1923.

How on earth did you find so much so quickly? I'm amazed.

age out a bit

SO born 1896 but not Devon and there isnt one showing for devon anyway. If this is her then the informant on the death cert got her age wrong
