I am looking for Minnie Vane. I cannot find her birth registration so am wondering if Minnie was not her given name.

Does anyone know what Minnie could be short for?

I know she had 3 children; Edith, mabel and Leonard and that she will have been born in Sussex.

I would be grateful for any help

Hello Gerri,

I do apologise for not replying to you and thank you so much for trying to help.

I know Minnie had 2 daughters Edith and Mabel and a son Leonard.

I do not have any certificates as yet but the birth reg you have given me is worth a try as I know her daughters had her maiden name.

I apologise again for taking so long to reply

Jodie
