FYI

the marriage registration for Winifred is on the free site, www.freebmd.org.uk


Marriages Sep 1955 (64%)

DAWSON Winifred RAMANAUSKAS Littleboro' 10d 169


It looks as though they haven't yet got to Ramanauskas in the Index!

Just thought I'd mention that the complete BMD images on the subscription part of Ancestry's site are available to view on microfiche for free in many local libraries.

Also many libraries also have free access to Ancestry itself.

It was from the complete index of bmd on Ancestry - went through each year quarter by quarter from 1950. Subscription part of the site

Our son was born Saturday and it pushed me into doing my Girlfriends side of the family we know her grandad was called Albinas Ramanauskas and was born in Lithuania in 1921 but how do we find out when he came to England and how ??? We do know he married a Winifred Marland but don't have the date....

Thank-you very very much for any tips.

kind regards adam
