Hi Sam, Post some details so perhaps somebody can help. Just be aware that we will all be watching bbc2 from 9-10 and then bbc 4 straight afterwards. Perhaps watching these programmes could give you some tips too.

Sam, Pick one of your brickwalls and start a topic asking for help with that. Make sure you say what information you want and what you've already got. Fingers crossed people will be able to help you, suggest new avenues etc etc. It's almost impossible to suggest what you can try next when we don't know what you've tried, what you want, and where in the world you're looking at as records vary from area to area.

If you go to this site and do a search: http://www.darlington.gov.uk/Living/Register+Office/RegOfficeSearch.htm You will see that there is a Sidney Robinson born 1905 but not one in 1904. There are also a couple in 1908 and 1910 as well, any of them could be yours. Sam x
