No wish - or need - to view your tree to be able to try to help you.

To trace the Millers, you need to start by obtaining the marriage cert for Norman and Annie.

Marriages Jun 1930 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bentham Annie Miller N.Bierley 9b 92
MILLER Norman Bentham N. Bierley


The cert will tell you how old he said he was, plus the details he gave about his father.

Then you can start looking for the family on censuses, and bmd records.

Do you know when and where Norman died?

Hi Sue

The oldest ancestor in my tree is my great great great) Grandad, James Bower. He was born 1819 in Harden, nr Bingley in West Yorkshire. He was a waller/stone mason. Last recorded age: 72

His son (my great, great Grandad) was Jonas Bower (warp dresser) married one Elizabeth Chippindale in 1864.

Their son (my great Grandad) Fred Albert Bower (railway plate layer) was born 1874 married one Sarah Ann Kirkpatrick - formally Pollard).

Their son (my Grandad) Albert Bower born 07/01/1901 married Lily Craven born 12/12/1907 0n 14/08/1930.

Any more information on these relatives would be greatly appreciated.

My Father Norman Miller born 12/04/1932 married Joan Bower (daughter of Albert) on 10/12/1949

His Father Norman Miller (my Grandad) married Annie Bentham from Thornton born circa 1905. This is where my information on the Millers ceases and I dearly would like to trace them back further.

Please contact me to request a Tree view.

Kind regards

Darren
