Hi there

I have a Beatrice Lily Read in my tree her DOB was 15/10/1887 in Leicester.

She Married William Cank in 1908 in Leicester. They had 10 Children together, all of which I have details for.

Beatrice died in Leicester on 16/12/1968.

My problem is I dont know anything about her parents, brothers or sisters. Is there anyone out there who can help with this please.

Regards Carla

Think she is on the 1901 census but I'm not subscribed to anything to have a look.

age 13, North West Leicester St Matthews.....I think that could be her and it should give you her parents,

Hi Carla,

There is a public tree on ancestry that lists the family. Not sure what info I am allowed to list.

If you have the marriage certificate that will give the fathers name and occupation.  Highly recommended to stop following wrong paths!

Birth cert will give both parents details
