I am researching my family tree and am a bit of a beginner! I don't have that much to go on, but thought I would post on here just in case anyone new my dad or grandparents, or could help with searches for dates or something - ANYTHING!!!!! :-) My Great Grand Father was HAROLD GEORGE SKINNER and married FLORENCE surname unknown as yet. They had 8 children: GLYN, SHEILA, EUNICE, DYLIS, AVIS, AUDREY, IVOR and my grandfather GEORGE HAROLD SKINNER (born circa 1911 - died 29 Sept 1973) married ALICE ELLEN DRINKWATER (died 6 January 1971) on 2 August 1937. They had four children: PATRICIA (born 1938), LESLEY, CORRINE & NICHOLAS (born 21 Dec 1940 died in South Africa 1992). I think they were all born in Liverpool, and my grandfather, George, was a mechanic and owned a garage at 17 Back Canning Street in Liverpool L18, and lived at 23 Storsdale Road, Liverpool L18. My Great Grand Father was AUTHUR DRINKWATER and married ADA GUY. They had 6 children: Doreen, Brenda, James, Samuel (born 1924 - died 7 Dec 1941), Guy and my grandmother ALICE ELLEN DRINKWATER. If anybody knows anything no matter how small - please get in touch! Cheers Colleen Skinner (daughter of NICHOLAS GEORGE SKINNER) :-)
