	A couple of aunties you may know about Births Mar 1932 Grace Mary Grigsby W.Derby 8b 652 Births Dec 1933 GRACE Dora A Grigsby W. Derby 8b 685 also maybe Emma's birth Births Dec 1912 Grigsby Emma Thomson W.Derby 8b 630 Have you found John J on the 1911 census? If you think Emma's birth is correct there are approx five siblings on FreeBMD Might be worth entering all the names (including Emma's siblings) in the search box at the top of the page to see if anyone has them in their tree.

Member Since: June 2003 Posts: 26 Send Message	Thanks to you all for a response. I am stuck with my grandfather. My grandmother was murdered and I never knew her. I have found her and some aunties I never knew I had but I cannot find my grandfather. His name was John Joseph Grace and he married Emma Grigsby on 8 August 1931, he was 20 at the time. The address given for him then was 52 Church Street Bootle. His father, my great grandfather was also John Joseph Grace and I believe they came from Kilkenny in Ireland but not sure when. If anyone can point me in the right direct I would appreciate it. Kind regards Chrissie

	As well as asking for help on here, if you are searching for something specific you could try contacting the local records office/archive that is nearest to the event(s) They can carry research out on your behalf and don't charge too much
