Hi, I am looking for any info about Wililam b 1865 and his son George b 1897. They both disappeared from any records I can find shortly after the death of William's wife Kate in 1905. Their daughter Minnie (who later became my wife's birth mother)was left in the care of a neighbour.They lived in Sheffield and William was a laundry engineer.
I should be grateful for any help or advice in tracing either of them.
I am assuming that they emigrated but can't find anything about this.
Thanks
Ron Jenkins
