I'm looking for any connections to my grandmother Anna Isabell?(Isobel) Crawford. Born about 1915 in Larne, Northern Ireland. I think her and her family (8 - 10 brothers and sisters, parents?) emmigrated to Sydney, Australia about 1925. She married Ivo (r) Maurice Thew in 1930 in Ardlethan, New South Wales, Australia. Would appreciate any help as I have no other information. Many thanks in anticipation, much appreciated.

There is a birth record for Anna Isabell Crawford
Registration in the district of Larne
Registration date - quarter and year: Jan - Mar 1915
Film number: 101076
Volume: 1
Page: 580
If you apply to the General Register office GRONI at http://www.groni.gov.uk/index/order_certificates.htm
it will cost £6 when you supply the registration district, Volume and page number. That will give you her parents names address,occupations etc..
When you get that info, post it here and we can find her parents marriage details etc..
You may be able to find the family in the 1911 census at : http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/

Welcome to Rootschat. As Otto has said, once you have the names of Anna's parents there's probably information we can find for you or suggest where to check next.
See here for ordering N.I. certificates-
