Member Since: October 2004 Posts: 13 Send Message	Once again I need the help of all. I have limited information regarding the subject I am trying to discover. I was recently sent by a Genes member a golden piece of information regarding my great uncle who was killed in action that was an obituary in the MEN. I have 95% knowledge of my great uncle, Sergeant James Fulton MGC, but the obituary apart from the family notice mentioned 'Lily and family' 303 Bradford Road Manchester. I have searched the 3 sites I belong to regarding the address plus electoral rolls and have yet to locate any information. I have tried to see if Lily lived with her parents at this address in the 1911 census when she was possibly about 16. The electoral rolls appear to come up with nothing. Help once again will be gratefully appreciated. :-(
