Find Ancestors

Jacqueline - Sorry that I got James and Francis wrong and thanks for the information of the above. James J Puncher b.1847 Old Ford Middlesex and his wife Sarah M Puncher b.1848 Old Ford Middlesex is Walter Charles Puncher b.1874 Poplar London parents so I am going to research that family. The strange thing was I did have James J Puncher b.1847 and Sarah M Staples (Puncher) down but wasn't sure if it was Walter's parents.
I very much appreciate what you have done for me and many thanks for your help, now I can start researching a bit more and see what happens and if I get this all right I plan to do the tree and will give it to my friend Norma whose birthday is next month. She does not know anything about this at all so it will be a great surprise for her all being well. Many thanks again I have a feeling that this is the right family
Regards
Effie

Hello this is Effie again I have been doing a lot of researching the the Puncher family also the Peggs and Bruce's. It is coming along nicely but I wonder if you could help me to find out who Elizabeth Emma Bruce b.1876 Poplar mother and father are as I havn't got a clue and cannot find them anywhere. Now what I have done is that I have found a Joseph Daniel Bruce b.1844 Colchester Essex and he married Lucy Collins b.1847 Hertford Hertfordshire and they had they had 11 children who were Daniel Bruce b.1868 Colchester Essex Sophia Bruce b.?? Bromley Kent Harriett Bruce b.1867 Colchester Essex David Bruce b.1868 ? Colchester Essex Harriett Bruce b.1870 Colchester Essex George Bruce b.1874 Bromley Kent Joseph William 1876 Poplar London d.3/06/1945 ? George Bruce b.1874 Poplar London Lucy Bruce b. 1879 Bromley Kent Sophia Bruce b.1881 Poplar London Annie Bruce b.1884 Poplar so I wonder if it would be possible if Elizabeth Emma Bruce b.1876 Poplar London may be one of them as I cannot find her parents anywhere. I have looked at the others Bruce's etc but am not able to find them so I would very much appreciate if you could help me in that respect.
Thanking you
Regards
Effie Lewis
