Hi Pam

If you get Lavina's birth certificate it will give her father and also her  mothers maiden name.

Lavina's and Alfreds marriage will also give fathers names.

Yes Pam, you can order online from here.

Her mother was a widow in 1881.

I was hoping to find the family in 1871 to see who she was married to but I cant find them  :(

I guess you have the family on 1881

RG11 2628 100 8

sadly Fanny senior is already a widow, so it doesnt help with Fanny Lavinia's dad's name.
Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex
