I am still trying to find a date of birth for my paternal Grandmother Mary Roberts as she appears not to have been baptised in Forest of Dean and more importantly in spite of years of searching I have not found a birth registration for a Mary Roberts with parents William and Caroline Roberts nee Stephens. Both parents were also born in East Dean.

I can accept Mary might not have been baptised (although some of her siblings were). What I can't get my head around is the fact that Grandma Mary Roberts appears not to have been registered at birth! I just must be missing something here and desperately need any help anyone can give PLEASE.... just to save my sanity.
