Hello all, Am trying to locate My Wilkinson twigs at the moment. Unfortunately I don't have much to go on, Norman was the youngest of 14/15 children, he was born in 1910 in Tantobie. One brother was Tom who died in 1960 aged about 90. Another brother was Gilbert who died in 1964ish, he married Mary. Also one sister Lillian. Having no luck on familysearch.org or Freebmd. Do not know parents names hence the problem!!! Thanks in advance for any help!! |

A forty year gap between first and last born would mean at least 2 wives I think. |

I think they were coal miners, have checked with the father in law and he can't remember much except they might have worked down the pit, his father (Norman) did as did a few of the others is that any help?? |
