Trying to find the family of John Henderson. We think his wife was called Kathleen. It is possible John and Kathleen started their family in Ireland. Although they may not originate from there. John worked in cables and pipe as an agent or ganger. They had 6 children Gerard/Gerald Henderson ?? c1919 Bridget Henderson ?? c1924 Honor kathleen Henderson 1926 (my grandmother) Isabelle/isobel Henderson c1928 - one of 1st pig valve transplants Mary Henderson c1930 died early 20s buried Robin Hood's Bay Anne Henderson c1937 Last Known whereabouts John Henderson died Kirkcaldy, SCOTLAND 1950s-60s after moving from Burley-in-Wharfedale Kathleen Henderson died in COWDENBEATH in 1960s. Gerard possibly married and living in Edinburgh or Dunfermline area. Bridget married a Jock Reid and had 2+ children - Eileen?? and Jim. We believe they also lived around the same area of Scotland as Gerard. Isobel died in 1960s married at the time to Sam Frank/s lived in Shelf, Halifax/BRADFORD Anne married a Roy Thewliss and lived at 29 Stanage Lane, Shelf, HALIFAX, until her death early 1990s. Anyone with information about this family could you please get in touch. My mum has been searching for her mother's family for years.
