could you look for another one please. And this is a difficult one, due to the surname and the fact that I have limited information.

I am looking for Francis Wilfred Jones born Feb 1913 mother's name is Jessie (not sure of father as we don't have birth cert).

Possibly living in Shifnal, Shropshire - but not sure.

Other siblings: Margaret, Albert (Bert), Charles, Jessie and Frederick

Any help would be appreciated please.

It is impossible to find him in 1911 if he was born in 1913. Were any of his siblings born before 1911??

Prickly holly and Glitter Baby

Sorry I have been away....had visitors!

Thank you both. This is the family! I found a few of the items myself. But couldn't find the births of some of the siblings (had names but no dates). I was told Francis' birthday was on 27th Feb 1913 but could only find the one registered in June 1/4 ???

I had Jessie Wilkes marriage, but was told that John had the surname Wilkes and that all the siblings were born after Francis in 1913...1915. Obviously I was given the wrong info. I thought it would be before, because John was born in 1903 and his mother married in 1905. 10 years before having another baby is a long time. so the ones you have found proved I was right.

Thanks again
Dee
