im trying to find relatives by the name ryan but dont know where to start as i dnt have much info

Lucy People can help best if you ask for specific help giving names and dates. If you said I am looking for my grandfather William, I don't know if he was born in mid 1800s or around 1940 or later. Tell us a few names, dates and possible locations and people will do their best to help. Remember that GR has a policy of not allowing postings about privacy of living people. Gwyn

Hi I am from the Ryan Clan I have been tracing them for many many years but still having problems trying to track certain branches of the family. Its best if you have a name of a man and wife. Where they lived and ages you may then be able to check free bmd. from their marriage certificate you will get the fathers names of the bride & groom .then work the ages out and look for birth certificates around them dates you will get the parents names from birth certificates and you may be able to work out their marriage as well. My family come from Liverpool England but came across from Ireland in 1847 God luck in your Quest Ryan k .

Lucy LUCK doesnt really help much LUCK wont find the right person You need facts. start with what you know, and work with that, go back a couple of generations, then work sideways. It will probably cost, unless you have very good concrete facts, even then,they need confirming. This is an enjoyable hobby,but not a cheap one

Dolly can be short for DORIS or DOROTHY. Reg
