Answer 1

Justme will probably come in behind me, and can give you great info on UK based research sites.  

This is general info, as to HOW TO AVOID the headache. The basic process is to work back, and USE DOCUMENTATION, one step at a time.  Most people try to rush through, which can get overwhelming.  You need to have good records of grandma's mum (gr grandma).. depending on when she was born, that may be a birth certificate, a census record, or ??

I suspect that you have not "solidified" your info with verification. In the process of that verification, the full names will show up.
