Hi Doris

My nan is a colvill from bethnel green, her name was Anne K Colvill, married Thomas A G brooks from bethnel green, brothers Thomas, John, sister shelia, mary & virgina. My nan was born in 1923, here mums name was Jane Larkin born 1892, father Thomas colvill, unsure of his year of birth. I have only just started to add this side on to my tree. My nan had Keith T 1954 & Alan W 1966. My nan died in 1990. I look forward to hearing from you soon
