Possibility:

Name: Henry W J Tyler
Death Registration Month/Year: 1958
Age at death (estimated): 46
Registration district: Greenwich
Inferred County: Greater London
Volume: 5c
Page: 528

Unless you see it on Eleanor's birth certificate, you can't be sure that James is her father.
He may possibly be her stepfather as his 2nd wife is somewhat younger.

I have a Gt Grandmother written on census as "daughter" to an elderly couple.
It turns out that they are her grandparents who brought her up as their own.

Before 1837 (when registration began) you need the parish registers.
Some, but by no means all, are online at

http://www.familysearch.org

Failing that it's a manual trawl of the record books and films at the local records office or in some cases at the churches themselves.

Eleanors parents were james and mary anne even though they were older.

I fouund records of jame's previos marriage and his former children.

How do you find birth records of people born in 1819, any help would be great as the cenus do not go that far back

Thanks

I am looking at the 1891 cenus but cannot find her thank you for all the help, i will carry on looking

Thank you

To be sure you don't follow the wrong family, first of all you need Henry W R J marriage certificate (details posted on page 1)
This will give you his age and father's name.

Then get his birth cert (again posted on page 1) and check the father matches.

His parents marriage cert will give you their ages and fathers and so it goes on.

Someone with access ( sorry I don't) may be kind enough to look up 1891 census for you which may help find Eleanor with parents. .... but make sure Eleanor is HWRJ's mother first.

I am not sure if it is Irene or Eileen i am strugling on the cenus records to find the household where henry is listed with his sisters and then the mother and father (head of Houshold) to confirm that i have the right Eleanor before i look further back,

Any sugestions or information

xx

Is that Minnie and Irene or Eileen ?

This information looks a bit wrong i am looking for Henry Tyler who had sisters mini and irlene which are not listed above so i don't think this is my family, anyone could help me find out

That would be great
x

that is a bit wierd that she is not living with her parents i n those days something must have happened to her parents interesting i will keep looking

Thanks for the help i am new to this so it can be a bit overwelming i can't belivev i havr founf my great great grandparents and now looking at their parents

It is quite exciting

xx

aged 14 in 1901 looks like she is with grandparents.

with a bit of luck she may be with parents on 1891 aged 4

o.k so i would need to but that or will it show up on some of the cenus records for the household?

x

Her birth certificate will tell you.

........and her marriage cert should confirm her father's name too.

oh o.k so how do i find out about eleanors parents

All i know is they are called mills,

Any advise while i am searching through records or information

xx

Doubtful that James is her father. Probably grandfather to all the children listed in 1901

Her maiden name was Mills.
Jonesey has posted what looks like her birth registration in 1887
Her parents names would be on that certificate.

Yes that is correct she was the wife of henry, need to know about her parents, cant find her madian name i am still looking though i must be slow at this everyone is finding things so quick, any help would be welcome

Thank You

I think Eleanor born 1887 is the wife of Henry not his mother.
