Hi Peter

Sorry no I don't have any birth certificates only got census copies, for 1881.1891.1901.
I have ordered Fanny's Birth certificate but its not arrived as yet.
I have been told that Fanny's parents are either Joseph Broomfield born c 1824 in Audlem and Rebbecca nee (Stubbs) or John Broomfield born c1819 in Audlem and Mary?
I tend to think that Joseph and John Broomfield could be brothers.If I could find Fanny in 1861 or 1871 it might help.I have been to the local library to search census for those years but I ran out of time before I found her.
Had no luck with Charles Harvey at all can't even find a Birth Certifcate. I have meet with Fanny's gr x 3 daughter this morning for the first time and she is struggling to get any other information as well.Anything you could find no matter how small would be of great help and might point us in the right direction.
Regards Cheryl

Hi Peter

Thank you so much for the info youv'e given me.I am now going to look on the 1881 census again because I'm sure that the Grand daughter youv'e found in 1871 was still living with them in 1881.
I can't wait for the Harvey info.
Again thanks so much
Regards
Cheryl

Hi Peter

Thank you  so so much for taking the trouble to look for me.
I feel really cheeky now but could you help me with my Grandads family.
I have done quite a bit of research on his side myself.
My Gr Gr Grandfather was John Spencer born c 1819 he married Ruth Lewis on the 21/6/1840 at St Magaret's Parish Church in Wrenbury Cheshire.
I have the certificate
John's fathers name was George Spencer .
Ruth's fathers name was Edward Lewis.
I have found John  & George on the 1861 census living at Burland Nantwich.But no trace of Edward Lewis or family. It said in 1861 I think George Spencer was born in Brindley Nantwich but the writing was really poor so I am not sure of that.
Could I please ask if youv'e got the time you could have a look on the 1851 Census to see if you could find George Spencer for me.
If thats no possible I will quite understand.
Again many thanks for your help
Regards
Cheryl
