Trying to find relatives of Charles Holland, a miner born 1900/1901 (approx) in Retford, Nottingham. He married Jane (known as Ginny)in 1920's. They had 2 sons, Charlie in 1924 and Geoff in 1934. Charlie married Margaret, worked on railways and had a son Malcolm. Geoff married Ursula Foulkes, moved to Midlands and had 2 girls, Sarah and Emma. Charles died 1979 in Retford & Ginny died 1977 in Retford. Their son Charles died in 1986 in Retford and Geoff died aged 53 in 1987 in Warwickshire. Charles was one of 11 illegitimate children. Seem to recall some family conversation to effect that his Housekeeper mother had all 11 by her employer, who kept them/her out of the workhouse. Any info on his relatives/descendants however small to Sarah Holland at: [email protected]
