It's in my local paper and they are trying to find relatives. If you have a marriage of ROACH and SCOTT from 1952 in the Birmingham/Solihull area, please contact me for the details.

I don't have them. But Hallo Jacky, and how are you? Good to see your name back on here. Hope somebody can find the owners of the album, how sad to end up in a skip.

Oh what a shame. I hope the owners or their relatives are found.

Researching:
Matthew and Jane Elwood who had my great great grandfather Francis Edward Elwood baptised in 1807 at Horsham Sussex. There is no sign of Matthew or Jane from this date and my great great grandfather was brought up as Francis Edward Elwood MITCHELL

Hi Anne, I look in from time to time but I don't usually have anything to say ;-) . I'm fine thank you, just very busy.

The photos look lovely and I would be thrilled if I had such a find for my family.

Hi All, I deliberately left off the names for clarification purposes if anyone contacted me ;-)

I have heard from someone with a son's name and address. I have passed this on to the paper that ran the article.

So I hope the album will soon be with it's family.
