Look towards the top of this page

There is a bar across which includes
Home
Family Tree
Search Trees
Search Records
Hot Matches etc etc

Click on Search Trees - All

Enter surname of Machaeson and you will get only 16 results

There are two possible entries by Steve or Steven and you can then try and contact him

There is also an entry which has the surname of Machaeson (was Stock) which is interesting given the possible marriage in 1976 of Norman to a Stock

Right, Ancestry wont let me send a message but I have tracked him down on Facebook and hope it will get through.

It would be nice to know if this is the right man and why he changed his name. so here goes fingers crossed, will get back to you if i hear anything.

Hi sorry i havent replied. he was born around 1929/1930. i dont have the marriage certificate but the year of marriage was 1953, quarter of marriage was jan-feb-march, district- dartford, county, kent, spouses surname- jeffrey, volume number- 5B, volume page 821. i think the first death certificate may be the right one. his middle name was eugene. thankyou very much

Eugene is more of an American name

Not sure if the poster will have access to Ancestry if just starting out on their research so she will probably appreciate your offer
