Find Ancestors

Hi again,

Could you look at marriages for
Ethel Branfoot & Walter Naylor 1913 and a possiable death for ethel Naylor mar Qtr 1982

Then marriage of Clifford Branfoot & Phillis Nichols 1928 please.

Thank you in Advance

Oh well, it was worth a try!

Hi Flip,

Had a look on Mundia but doesn't tell us any more than we already know and I think she has copied some of the Branfoot details from my tree on Ancestry.


Wendy

Thank you Flip that's great I'll go onto mundia I have already registered with them :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D.

Thank you also for everything you have done for me.

Wendy

Hi Wendy,

There's a tree on ancestry which has more details on your Emily after their arrival in Canada, belongs to jackiehuggins1. If you don't have a subscription you can view it on the mundia site which is free, although you need to register.

Has a death for their son Eric in 1978, and it shows Edward around up to 1965.

hi again,

I'll keep an open mind on the death of George Horsman 1962 as there was 2 George Horsman's born 1885's living in Leeds one born Leeds and one born Scarborough both on 1901 census my George on 1911 census living 39 Stanhope St (same address on marriage) born Scarborough.

Wendy

Thank you Flip :-D :-D :-D

In Dec 1919 when George was released, they were still at the address giving on his enlistment. He was obviously injured as he was given a weekly pension of 12/8, due to some kind of problem with his left hand - 20% disability.

What would I do without you Marie and you Flip, looks like you solved my puzzle and found Elizabeth, so she didn't go to Canada after all and the 1933 death is her.


Thank you both soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
much :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D.

I may be back with more branfoot's
