More good news -- a daughter was the informant and that confirms that the family I found in the 1841 census was the correct family!

Marriage certificates are extremely useful for establishing father's names - but you were lucky in this case as often if there was illegitimacy the father's name would be left blank. You have to be careful, though. My grandfather put his father's name as John Manley - but it was only later that I discovered that this was his adoptive father - his real father was a John McEwen. <brRos Botthttp://tracingancestors-uk.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8641680.post-17193061672370933762009-05-20T10:15:09.006-04:002009-05-20T10:15:09.006-04:00Three weeks.

I came across the place to order certificates while on ancestry.com and ordered death certificates for my great great great grandparents hoping to find their parents' names.
