You are going to have to use that information to BUY her marriage certificate.


That will tell you the name of her father, his occupation and where szhe was living at the time


THEN we might be able to help you.

Thank you everyone. I have managed to trace from Ellen's marriage forward and have ordered a copy of her marriage certificate, but I am finding in all searches that 'Hartfield' and 'Harfield' come up and I am not sure if this is the same lady or not. Thanks for all of your help
