Title: Mavis Taylor - trying to find
Post by: Franzie on Sunday 18 May 08 15:01 BST (UK)

Hi
I'm trying to find Mavis Taylor born in Methley, Nr Castleford, West Yorkshire in 1925.
I'm trying to find her parents.
Any help or a push in the right directions.
Best wishes
Jo

start by locating the birth reference in the GRO indexes. freebmd will NOT have transcribed it, but original images may be searched.

That'll give a mothers maiden name for starters.
