Member Since: April 2003 Posts: 11 Send Message	Can you help me trace Mary Anderson born 11/3/1893 ( according to a family bible). According to her marriage certificate to William James Currie on 8/5/1915 (Holy Trinity Church, Carlise) her father was William Anderson, a Iron Moulder. Mary worked at Cumberland Infirmary during the first world war. Mary’s father’s family lived in Workington or Ashington where there was a steel works. It is believed that Mary’s mother was also called Mary. Mary also had 3 brothers Tom, Bill and Cyril (Anderson). I have tried checking the census for 1901 and 1911 without any luck.
