Hello Hugh and welcome to the boards.

You have replied to an old thread and it is likely that Thomas is no longer looking for replies.

If you click on his name you can send your message that way. If he still has the same email address, he will be notified.


It looks as though Ginny has sorted out quite a lot of the family but, if you need further help you could start your own thread but quote this thread in your message - so that people do not do research twice.

You can also try putting the names you are researching into the Search Trees box above to see if anyone else on this site has them in their tree. Ifyou find a connection, you can contact the tree owner.

Cx.

Lucy Kathleen m. my great-uncle Charlie Harrison.
They had no children.

Thomas just thought. If they were a wealthy family they would probably have written 'wills'

It costs £5 to get a copy, got to be worth a shot, you can get them from here
