Thread: Birth look up please

Hi



I am looking for the birth of my Gr gr grandmother Phoebe(Phebe) Jane Davis she was born around 1839 in either Dudley or Birmingham. She Married in 2 jul 1863 in Aston Birmingham to a George deVall. I don't know much about her and i have no information on who her parents were someone sent me a message through genes reunited saying we were distant relations through Phoebe and her parents were a Edward Davis and a Phoebe but things did not add up so i am unsure about this and i cant remember why because i have been daft and lost my notes on it.



Any help would be great i am still a bit of a beginner and don't know where in this case to start by ordering certificates.



Thanks Louise

Hi Welshlady



Thanks for your help and info i will get her marriage cert and hopefully that will put me on the right track and find out if Edward and Phebe were her parents.



Thanks

Hello

If you look on the Free BMD you will find a birth in the last quarter of 1840 ( i.e.under December) of a Phebe Davies born in Dudley.

The cerificate no. is there.

You can then write to Dudley reg. office for the certificate giving all the details you have --be sure to do that as you don't want to pay for an incorrect certificate-costs about £8.

It takes a little while to get the hang of the Free BMD but once you've cracked it it's very easy ---Good Luck!
