Ok. I'll get onto that. Thanks for all your help Georgina. I really appreciate it.

Joanna I think you need to get their marriage certificate otherwise we could be going round in circles, the certificate will at least give you his age and his fathers details which will help narrow the search. Afraid I am off to bed now so happy hunting. Goodnight. Georgina.

Just by Lichfield, that's where my husband's parents live. Very small world. I thought you were about 300 miles away!!

You don't think that there was a bit of predjucise(can't spell that word) and John pretended he was from Liverpool? Or is this going up the wrong tree completly? All sorts of things are going through my head now!!

I 've heard about the irish aswell lol!! She remembers Catherine, John (her father) and Margaret. Then when Elizabeth remarried to Patrick she remembers Agnus and Ellen (Uriell).

Joanna that was my next question, does your Nan remember children with those names. I guess that rules them out. It just seems funny that John & Elizabeth didn't have any children in the first 6 years of their marriage, I know how the Irish could breed my parents were Irish & there is 8 of us LOL. Georgina.

What about Victor?

Joanna

Joanna Report 7 Jun 2007 01:10

Is the Lilian and Victor supposed to be their children? I know they didn't have any kids with them names.

You could be right about Lilian, Sue. I'm just confused now.
