    Search the GRO Index on ppv sites like A* or FMP. Marriage will most often be recorded under maiden name and married surnames.

    V Wells can you pls explain the above for me.

    ChristineR... The birth in 1931 is Dorothy This is a mystery to me
    I'm very curious about the possible marriage to Thomas J Elliott, I believe James may have had a brother but he is listed as just Thomas
    If Eliza did marry Thomas, how do you explain the lack of Death info as she would still be listed as Elliott??

    Many thanks for the assistance
    It gets more interesting by the day

    Perhaps wrongly recorded as Elizabeth? or a pet name, Bess, Lizzie etc.
    Did your father emigrate to Australia? they may have followed.

    Dorothy's birth certificate may be interesting - it might also turn out that it is not your James that died.

    The Elliott/Chambers combination in Thorne, Yorkshire only had the one child registered in that district.

    Thanks ChristineR
    I only discovered my father last year
    There is an uncle Walter Elliott I believe emigrated to Australia (poss 60's) so I may have cousins here in Australia

    There was an earlier marriage between a Bessie Chambers (form Blackburn) and a James Elliott but this was the wrong James.
    I know for a fact that my James was born approx 1877 and died prior to 1947.
    I have sent away for a birth cert (for 1877) and a poss death cert for 1927 so I am patiently waiting for those
    Eliza's death intrigues me as to lack of a record

    Thanks again
