Family Tree
« on: Sunday 15 July 12 10:47 BST (UK) »
Hello Everyone,
                        I hope that someone can help me with my search in to my family tree.
 The Family that i am looking for were the SELL family from Royston,hertfordshire and they had a daughter called MAUDE ELIZABETH and she was born in Royston,Hertfordshire in October 1895.
 She had 3 children JOHN,MARJORIE and PETER.
    She spent the last years of her life in Walsworth,Hitchin,Hertfordshire and died in 1976.
 I know that it's not much but if you can help it would be fantastic as i feel i am getting nowhere at the moment with ancerstry.com
               Thanks if you can help

I have found a Maude Sell marriage to Wilfred Chamberlain  in Royston  in 1921(1),   Ref  3a 1337.
There are four births that fit
Female  born 1921(20  died 1921(2)
Cyril J  born 1922(4)
Marjorie E.  born 1925(1)
Peter W.  born 1932(2)

I am not sure what it is you are looking for or whether you have this information already.

Hello

What is Maude Elizabeth's married name? I saw in the death index Maud Elizabeth Garrard who died in Stevenage 1st Quarter 1976 Vol 10 page 1269 aged 78, which would make the year of birth about 1898, which isn't quite right, but fits the date of death.  Did she marry Mr. Chamberlain and then Mr. Garrard?

Do you have Maud's birth certificate for the parent's names? There is a Maud Sell but she is 3rd quarter 1895 (not quite October, but close :-)) Royston Vol 3a page 542.

Anything else that you have would be useful.
Regards
Isobel
