Two sisters but no parents!!! COMPLETED THANKS
« on: Wednesday 17 April 13 13:21 BST (UK) »
I have two siblings, Dorothie Mary Darley b.1881 Thorne Yorkshire, and Ciceley Sarah Darley b. 1883 Thorne, and have found their birth registrations but no census returns anywhere!
They came from a wealthy brewing family and although I have looked at different sites concerning this family, have been unable to tie these two girls in with them - even though I know by Ciceley marrying Henry (Harry) Whitworth, two large brewing families came together.
This is extremely frustrating as I have a lot of my daughter-in-laws paperwork here, but so much is missing.
I would be grateful for any help.

The marriage certificate for Ciceley (and Dorothie if she married) should list father's name and occupation which might help locate them in census records. I'm not entirely clear as to whether you are missing the family in census records or just these 2 sisters. It might help to tell us any other details on the parents that you might know.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
