Hi

Sorry this is so long but I thought I would give you all the information that I have

I was going to put this post on find living relatives but after reading the first post changed my mind.

I would love to find any information on my grandfathers siblings marriages and their children if it is at all possible. I have some marriages but not all and would love know their children if possible so I can maybe make contact with them, My grandfather emmigrated to Australia in 1920's but I don't know what happened to the rest of his siblings or death dates etc

All the information I have on them is as follows
BACKGROUND
Great grandfather - George Sim born Pitsligo, Aberdeenshire abt 1839 son of John Sim born 1787 Pitsligo and Jean (Jane) Sim born abt 1800 Pitsligo, Aberdeenshire
George married Jane Johnson born abt 1845 Burnhaven, Peterhead, Aberdeenshire in Peterhead in 1864, daughter of William Johnston born abt 1817 Aberdeenshire and Catherine Yule born abt 1819 Peterhead.

In the 1871 census George and Jane along with some children were living in Hebburn Quay, South Shields. In the 1891 census they livied at 38 Zante St Kirkdale, Liverpool and in the 1911 census Mother and children (Florence and Mary) lived with Thomas (son) at 21 Mitylene St Kirkdale, Lancashire
Children are as follows

William Sim born abt 1864 - Durham England married Jane Jones 1889 West Derby

George born abt 1869 - Durham England married Ann Greer in 1899 (I think)

John Sim born abt 1866 Durham England

Mina Lily Sim born abt 1877 Lancashire, England married Attilo Verona in 1901 - had 2 children William and Margherita,
Margherita married Albert Bingham and had daughter Norma who married Laurence Kingsbury and had son Rodney Kingsbury.
