Please help I am looking for any help on the above two people I am really struggling to find out anything about them at all, including parents place of birth any children etc
I believe that Robert Bailey may have died c1955 in the North East and also at some point may have emigrated to Austrialia then come back again prior to 1936

My mother remembers my Grandad John Robert born 1909 was brought up by a relation called Musgrave when his father left him to move to Australia shortly after his birth and his monthers death - now that is a challenge to find a relative called Musgrave from somewhere !!!

Thanks :) the whole musgrave connection and where it comes from is facinating - especially if it comes via Bambridge perhaps a generation back from there hmmm....
