Ann, you could try to find them yourself as fortunately after late 1911 birth registrations gave mothers maiden name. If you go to freebmd and enter the fathers surname and then the mothers maiden name for births from say a 20 year period from when they married it should bring up likely matches. Of course, there is always the chance that another couple with the same surames married in that area so you will not be 100% certain unless you buy every cert.

Would anyone be able to help me find any children born to Edgar W. and Martha E. Downes nee Sheldrake.They married in 1912 at Hackney. Edgar is my maternal grandmothers eldest brother born 1882 Marylebone London, His parents were William Henry Thomas and Mary Ann Downes nee Erry.
Anyone that might read this and feel they are connected I would love to hear from you.
I would be most great full for any help I can find as I have come up against a brickwall with this one.
Thankyou
Ann
