Fred is looking for the origins of Alice Hancock Longden who married Charles SF Buckley in 1894, Burton. The birth he found in 1871 Sheffield is clearly a false lead. GRO says they had 2 sons John and William in 1895 and 1898 both in Chesterfield. Charles S F Buckley died in Chesterfield in the 1930s. I assume the 1901 and 1911 censuses will tell us where Alice was born.

Hi Dave t, Elaine & Moira.
Thank you all again for your very kind replies. The birth given record given By Dave is the only birth record Found albeit the names are changed around. Theire marriage record does give her names as Alice Hancock Longden Oct - Dec 1894 Burton Upon Trent Staffordshire Vol 6b Page 687.
I think to claer this one up I shall send for both a Birth & married hoping the fathers name is the same on each of the records.
Once Again Many thanks to you all.
My very best wishes to you and all your families.
Fred Wheatcroft.
