Do you have the marriage certificate for your fathers 2nd marriage? If it was not his brides 1st marriage it may help to have her previous names to find out if there were any children from this marriage.

Hi
I do not have the marriage certificate but I know he was married in Bury in 1953 to an Elizabeth Dixon. He died in 1959 and I do not think there were any children.

Many thanks for all your help.
Barbara

My goodness what a lot of help you have had from Moody Blue, good of them. I have Wildgooses in my family but only in the Sheffield part. Our favourite name that my sister and I would have liked to be called was Amelia Wildgoose. Wildgoose is reasonable size buillding company I think based In Derbyshire.

Hope you have all you need now, Sandra

There are three trees (one is yours) which have Percy on them.

If you put the name into SEARCH top left of page you can make contact with the two other tree owners.
