I´m trying to find the name of the daughter born to a couple on my family tree. I know it was a girl, born about 1908-1909. On the 1911 census the child´s name isn´t given just one child born alive and still living. I know that her first name began with M but that´s all. The daughter is mentioned on the mother´s death certificate but only by her initial and her married name. Although I have a good subscription i´m running out of ideas of where to search now. Any ideas?

Was it usual for a child´s name to be left off the 1911 census or did it mean that the child wasn´t at home at the time?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I've been looking in to my family history for my mother (80's) she had done a lot of research in the 90's unfortunately her research was destroyed when she shifted, so I now have the ancestry bug, to find as much as possible for her and now my curiosity. I live in Australia born in New Zealand so a long way to travel to get more info. Looking forward some day to get to the UK.
All of my ancestors are from the UK which is good, but seem to be hitting a brick wall as with others in trying to get the right lineage and linking early ancestors with later ones.
Anderson line - Jonathan b 1818 maybe north England or Scotland married Isobel Smith b abt 1820 gr,gr,gr grandparents
Gee line - Richard Gee b 1779-81 Northamptonshire,4xgr g.father 3xgr g.father married Sophia Masters 1820-1860
Nancarrow - John 1606-1692 mainly Cornwall area. Have a lot of different trees (Surnames) going from this line dating back to 1423
O'Donnell - John 1839-1933 gr gr g.father I know hes a decendent of the O'Donnell's (O'Domhnaill) of Tyrconnell 1400's-1600's but can't find the conection to my John. Also my Galic language isn't that good either!!
Watson - Helen Jane 1912??? has come to a screming holt born St Pancras, Greater London my father's (Dennis Daniel b1932 he was adopted by his aunt Ann ) mother has two sisters Beatrice & Ann(Baker).
So the search goes on somewhat slowly.
Hoping to be able to help others find their roots or receive help from others.
Kind regards to you all

I dont like the way that the big genealogy sites work (effectively social networking sites) as I believe that the data that I hold is confidential and should not be available by a Google search. I have approached 6 web design companies over a period of about a year and none of them have even come back to me after I explain that I want the site to be private and non-searchable.

Does anyone know of a company in the UK who can provide me with a quote to build this site.

The site will need to be built with a content management system to control access and be designed to NOT be found by search engines.

Thanks.]]>

This is fact that:

"Marry to right person because 90% of your happiness depend on this"

so How did you choose the person you married? tell about your opinion.
