	How will you find the sons birth though? Can you tell us who George married please? Because if he married Elizabeth Blackburn I think we can tell you his birth details. p.s. If you don't want to put it on here you could PM (private message) one of us.

	Quote 'Did he marry Elizabeth Blackburn?' I think you are thinking on the same lines as me Glitter baby. We may have found him John but we need a little more information to be sure.

	Well, I've looked for all the male Whitfields born 1880 +/- 1 with father William in 1891 and I've managed to narrow it down to about 7 counties :)) Come back John, where are you:)
