Searching for info on William Seed b February 1882 in Blackburn, son of Thomas and Elizabeth, stepson of Jane. Master Painter & Decorator died October 1939 in Morecambe Lancashire. Living with a Margaret Seed at the time of his death and there is a Norman G Seed of Rochdale somewhere in the picture but I don't know where they fit in. Can anyone help me please, William was my Grandfather and I know very little about him.
