Well after much more hunting around and checking records it appears that my great grandma catherine corlett was infact born on 12/12/1887 and not 1890 as i had come to believe.she was born in the isle of man her father being john corlett possibly a sea man? i got this information from her marriage certificate but all it says is "catherine corlett age 28 and william rogers age 36 (it was his 2nd marriage he had a son william from a previous marriage) got married in wesley mission hall west derby liverpool on 6th july 1915.it states his father as joseph rogers(whom ive been able to find more info on ) and her father john corlett deceased(this is where im really stuck) i dont have her mothers christian name also i know after her father died the mother remarried to a mr beck (their daughter clara beck my gr grandma's half sister was a witness on the marriage) i can go forward from that but i need to go back to my gr grandma's father and mother. She had another sister florence and now im not sure wether florence was a beck or a corlett. the plot thickens :os ANY info would be gratefully appriciated thanks
