    Default Help I have hit a brick Wall!!!!

    I have spend ages trying to find my Great Grandmothers parent. But to no avail.

    Her name Gladys May Roberts and she was born 08/04/1895. She married William Allsworth and later on she married Frank Gallop. I know she spend most of her life in Bristol but unsure where she was born. I was told that her parent was Samuel and Mary but this is misleading me.



    You wouldnt believe how many Gladys May Roberts there are.



    Any help would be fantastic

    hi Caroline



    Have you checked for a birth index for her??

    The only one I can find that fits with the dob you gave is this..

    Plenty of Gladys Roberts born 1895ish in both Wales and England 1901 census, but none with parents Samuel & Mary.



    I would suggest the marriage cert would be a good investment, it would be all too easy to bark up the wrong family tree here. The witnesses on the cert might also help - often they include best man and/or bridesmaids, and these are often siblings or cousins.
