Tracy Report 20 May 2007 14:34

Trying to locate a Margaret Bray/Harold Redfern Qtr of Jul, Aug, Sept 1914 Harold Redfern married Edith Spencer and had three children Edith 1914 Mansfield Harold was born 1917 Mansfield Can't find when Lilly was born, but she died about 1998 time. Big Harold's Mums Maiden name was Clayton Little Harold's Mum Maiden name was Spencer Edith Redfern married Bill Neal don't know what year Lilly Redfern married Bert Smith don't know what year Harold Redfern married Margaret Bray 1944 Edith and Lilly had no children as I know of, but Lilly and Bert did take in Ian and Stewart when they was young and raised them as there own in Skegby in Sutton in Ashfield. Margaret married Harold Redfern in March qtr of 1944 Mansfield Had daughter Sandra in 1946 Nottingham (Never knew she existed, but says her mothers maiden name was Bray and father was Redfern-Maybe she died young???) Also had son Ian Redfern 1948 Mansfield and son Stewart G Redfern 1951 Mansfield Stewart died in late 70's in a motorcycle accident near or in Tibshelf... Ian alive and strong, married Aileen Chettle in Sept1980 had daughter Tracy (me) in Feb 1982.Also adopted Sean Chettle in 1980 (Aileens son from previous relationship) Any help greatly appreciated, biggest help would be knowing where Harold and Margaret is now...alive or deceased? They are my Grandparents after all... Be also great to know if there is a brother/sister link between Ian, Stewart and Sandra... Ian as mentioned Stewart but never Sandra... Why is that? Does anyone out there know? We may be a small family, but I believe that someone out there knows what its all about... [email protected]
