do you know when clare was born, it would make it easier to find a marriage.

Maxine Report 7 Aug 2008 22:26

im sure it is because of one being jaqueline,but i didnt know of carol,could she have died very young? if jaqueline had children and one is called clare,clare is my cousin ,i remember her ,she used to take me to the park,she has a brother but i cant remember his name,jaqueline married dennis but i dont know his surname,this is so surreal,thanks!

Maxine,

As Julie has said, if you put any of these Linstead names into the quick search boxes at the top of the page, you will find someone who has these names in their family tree. You can click on that person's name and send them a personal message. They may be able to tell you more about these people.
