	Hi there, I am looking for any info on my late grandmother Isobella BUCKLEY born 29.12.1912 to Joseph and Mary Buckley (nee DEWHURST). Isobella married my grandfather Albert PILKINGTON at All Saints, CLM's on 13.01.1934. They had 3 children Brian b1935, Maree (my mother) b1937 and David b1943. Any help greatly appreciated, Vikki in Australia

	Dear Lew, OH MY MY, you have been busy. THANK YOU so much for the info you gathered for me on both my boards, it is truly invaluable. I dont want to be a pain, but I am finding it very hard to find any of my grandparents (Albert Pilkingon & Isobella Buckley) siblings . . . . they were all born around or after the 1901 census. Do you have any ideas for me ? Thank you again for all your hard work. Warm regards, Vikki
