I would expect the full names to be included on her birth and baptismal records.

I will have a search later

Thank you all for your help.

I did order the birth certificate, but I guess I don't need it now.

How did you access this information for free?

Thanks,
Robert

you can use a variety of search engines on the computer to find this data. have a look at ones like Ancestry and Find My Past, but there are many others. At a local level many parish registers have been transcribed and made available on line, or published on discs
It is getting steadily easier to find the information on line

Good luck with the rest of your research

just to add to dochines post-

the info I gave came from Ancestry. West Yorkshire parish records are just one county available online. Just a thought though, you may have to put Ancestry.co.uk into your search box to obtain these records. I don't know how it works for you, but I sometimes have to search on Ancestry.com to get a some records
