Hi
Please can anybody help me. I have traced the birth of Reginald G Timson on 7 May 1909 in Londonderry, Ireland. Can anybody look up his parents please.
Thanks
Julie

Julie,
You could obtain a transcribed image of this birth from Rootsireland.ie.
By manipulating this site, I was able to obtain a match on the father's name :George Timson ( i based it on guesswork)

The child/father does not appear on any 1911 census of Ireland and there is no George Timson on a 1901 return?

Researching:
Brannan/ McGrath/ Kerr/ Jordan/ Finnigan NI and Free State. Devlin/ Lamont / Lamond/ Fyfe/ Pollock/ Johnston/Struthers/ Smith. Scotland. Avi: Hand Fasting or Tying The Knot. Daughters wedding 2016
