Thanks - that has still been a helpful, giving me the link to which register.  I hope I will be able to visit a library in the near future to look this up.

Hi, Hope everyone is keeping safe and well.
I've hit a bit of a brick wall tracing back further in my family tree.

I have a reference for a marriage in 1824 (FHL Film number and page number) and was hoping that if I could see the record it may have their parents names on it so I can trace back further

Does anyone know of any online database or is a visit to a records office? (obviously not available at this time  :(

Thanks,

Hi,
Successfully traced back my Panton ancestors back to 1828.

Henry Panton
b 28 July 1828 All Saints, Worcester

Also found out Parents names - Henry and Mary, now looking for info on these and am stuck.

Would appreciate some guidance on next steps - is a subscription to parish records pre-1837 a good idea?

Thanks,

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!

This explains everything now.

From family stories and info inc. 1911 census the following are facts

Doris M Smith (my Nan) was born March 1913 and was registered late so she was give birthday of 22/3/1913 when apparently it was 15/3/1913.

She had a half sister 'Elsie' (Lillian Gay)

Sorry I should have mentioned this but I got so confused and blinkered that it must have been Bradshaw or Sheargold and didn't look further - but you're so good you didn't need that! ;)
Brilliant, made my day.

Thanks for your reply and time taken.
That's given me some leads to go on.

I also know that Eliza (or Elizabeth) died around 1917/1918.
Regarding siblings, unfortunately I'm unaware of any.

I think I will have to obtain the marriage or birth certificate for my Nan to get Eliza's maiden name.

I was very close to my Nan but only got into tracing family history after her death in 2005.
