Have you seen the birth above?

Hi on my 1901 look up of Edward Barnes it said he was born in Beggerton, Yorkshire, could someone please check this spelling, I don't seem to be able to find it on a map, many thanks

This looks like her birth and mothers maiden name

Thank you Maddie, this 1901 is definately correct as James his son was born in St Helens 1894. This is great it tells us he was from Yorkshire, many thanks x

marraige cert will have fathers name

Sorry for the delay ladies, I've been searching through my friends paperwork, it's my friends tree so all I have is that she married Edward Barnes in June 1888 in Wigan, don't yet have the certificate Wigan 8c 104, thanks for your interest and your help x

The census may have been mistranscribed.....can you give us her marriage details please

x

when did she marry and where

I think its more likely to be 1881 that Ginny found in Park Street, as it is FORSTER and not FOSTER, thanks all, anything on 1871 for FORSTER please

You'll need to buy her birth certificate to confirm her parents

if 1881 right
