Hi all I am trying to help out a friend with their family research but am failing can somebody please help. The info i have is the following: Jill May Cobb born Oct 31 1939 in London. Died Dec 18 1997 in London. Reginald Arthur Smith born April 21 1936 also in London. Died July 16 2003 in London. Jill and Reginald were married but i don`t know when. Jill`s mother Doris Hester but no date of birth but died in June 2000 in London. Jill`s father Thomas Cobb born in London. What they are trying to do is to go further back on Doris`s side and also Reginald`s side. If anyone can help then i would be very very greatful. I will cheak back tomorrow as i know it is a bit late and i wouldn`t expect anyone to look up anything at this time of night. Many thanks Lyn.
