Jacky

If the marriage Pam has found for you in West Ham isn't correct, then you might have to buy one of the children's birth certs for the mother's name.

Could it be that she was married before and so would be indexed under her married name and not her maiden name of Watson?

morning mary
yes i was thinking the same thing so have been cross referancing all the ernest broadbent marriages in the yorkshire area but still zilch so have decided to send for one of the childrens birth certs its the only certain way to find out but thanks for your reply & time
