Hi
I am trying to trace my grandmother's family; I believe her father was Robert Honeyman and mother Edith Wilson. My grandmother was born in February 1913 in South Shields. Her middle name was Bell and think she had a sister but not sure about any other siblings.
If anyone thinks they may be related or know a family member please get in touch.
Thanks
Gaynor Pennington

Robert Honeyman's birth certificate is available to view online at

www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

Here are the basic details...

1878 HONEYMAN ROBERT M ALLOA /CLACKMANNAN 465/00 0380

Scotlands People is a credit service, however is very cheap.... £6 for 30 credits which is more than enough to get quite far back on his side....
