Thanks Val,
I have been trying to find MacBillin for a few months by searching the internet. I went to Newhaven today and visited a number of libraries and museums. I think your right. The name doesn't seem to exist. I will start researching the alternative names that have been suggested.
Many thanks
Nikki

This is a photograph of my great grandfather Arthur Henry Moore DOB 22/3/1896.
Can anyone identify his uniform for me please? I have been told that he was an infantry man. He lived in sussex (Newhaven). He was received an injury to his back in the war.

My mum said she thinks someone in the family thought Irene Isabel may have been adopted. I'm not sure where to go looking for that.

Family History Beginners Board / MacBillin
« on: Saturday 29 August 09 18:22 BST (UK)  »
I am looking for Irene Isabel MacBillin, George MacBillin and any other family. I am trying to find out where and when she was born, where she grew up, what school she went to? Anything?
 
She was married on the 7th June 1919 at The Parish church in the Parish of Denton in the county of sussex to Arthur Henry Moore (Age 23, Bachelor, Occupation Fireman (Railway)
The marriage certificate says she was age 25, spinster, No profession, Residence at time of marriage Denton, Father's name George MacBillin Deceased Occupation Electrician.

I do not have any information about her mother.
 
Irene and Arthur had six children - Marjorie, Leslie, Allan, Reginald (1922 - 2005), Rachel and Ron Moore.
 
She lived in Stafford Road, Caterham, Surrey until her death.
She died on the 14th Aug 1944 and is buried at St Mary's Church in Caterham, Surrey, England. The grave stone said she died aged 50yrs.

I have searched on ancestry.com and checked the census but I can't find the name anywhere other than on the marriage certificate and the grave stone. Please help?
Nikki
