Hi, I am trying to find any relatives that may still live in the Hanley Swan area. My Great Grandparents lived in Gabriels Terrace and were called Thomas and Esther Gardner.
I believe that one of their daughters(Mary Ann) married a Charles Bradley and remained in Hanley Swan.
I would love to hear from anyone who can assist my search.

Many thanks in anticipation.
Diane :-)

Have you tried the phone book?

Or www.192.com?

Do you have any date info?

As these were your great grandparents, you must know the name and birth year of whichever of their children was your grandparent

One of the best ways of finding connections is putting your tree on here.

Have you put yours on the site?

Have you looked in search trees to see if anyone else has entered the family names?
