Hello, Has anyone any idea where I can look now? I found a birth Hilda Woodriff 1910(leeds)....BUT can't find ANY more info.................looked in Family relatives site(they had birth in the wrong place, so I missed it first time round!) also 1837site.There is NO mention in either marriages or deaths. I checked woodruffs too. This is driving me mad now. Has anybody electoral rolls or such + could check for me? Thanks a lot, sorry to be a pain!! Ann x

Thanks Sarah.............. I cannot find any reference to Hilda Woodriff only the birth!(1910, leeds) I have looked for marriages/deaths from 1910-present! on Family relatives web site + also 1837 web site. Hope I have clarified this now!! Thanks Ann

Ann I don't think you can have checked the 1837 site from 1910 to the present. Even if you only had to check one page per quarter that is 470 pages which you have to pay for. You must be richer than me! nell

Thanks again Sarah.Guess its back to the drawing board + trawling through again!. Yes Nell, I did check them all! I did name search on fam rels and worked between the two sites!! I can only think ive missed it.........I did have trouble first of all, finding her date of birth as it was transcribed in the wrong place on fam rels!!! Many thanks Ann
