How lovely Well done Dizzi :-D :-D

that was lovely dizzi. <3

Well done Dizzi and lovely for them.

What a lovely story.

My great grandmother was one of the terry children, my grandmother has the photo of them all up in her living room. If anyone has any information or pictures of the terry family please could you contact me. Also what was the book called?
Thanks

hi rosie

the thread is 3 years old you could pm dizzi to see if she still has the book

good luck

welcome to the boards Rosie.

Dizzie isn't related; she found the photo and book and wanted to reunite it with an interested descendent.

As Dizzie said that she'd posted the book to one of the relatives, she probably has contact details.

Click on her name to send her a message. She could probably act as the middle woman and pass yours on to them.

Thank you, fingers crossed she has the contact details. I know my great grandmother was the youngest of all of the children and my grand mother was in contact with a few of her cousins a few years ago but has since lost the contact details.
