Trying to find William Dolman

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Valerie Report 17 Jul 2007 17:15

William Dolman was born in 1854 in Gouda Holland his parents were a William H Dolman and Ruth (nee Crees) Ruth born in the Hanley Castle area died in Holland in November 1854 and her husband William H Dolman returned to England with an elder son Richard and the young son William. I have no trace of William after the 1871 census when he was living with Ruth's brother and his family. In the 61 census he was with his Grandfather. It would appear his father left him with his wifes family to be brought up, as the first son Richard stayed with and was brought up by the father but not William. I was wondering if any member of the Crees family in Genes Reunited can help me find out what became of William. I would appreciate any help as I have been searching for a long time and would like to know what became of him.
