Hi I am looking for my father John Burns born around 1957. He has two daughters Sophia and Gabriella Burns. He was last known to live in Warrington, Cheshire in the early 1990's with Diane Folland. As far as I am aware John has a brother Ian.
Any information or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Sophia,

Does he know about you?

I am not related to you and I'm not your husband's first wife!

I see you have Gabriella in your GR tree.........................how did you manage to get her permission?

Someone else has her in a tree...get in touch by clicking on 'find out more' against the tree owner's name.

EDIT

It looks like the other person is Gabriella, so presumably neither of you knows the current whereabouts of your father.

There are several J Burns listed on http://www.thephonebook.bt.com in Warrington, Cheshire. Have you considered writing to the addresses?

Sophia is not looking for her sister it's her father she is looking for.

Does your father have a middle name?

Nothing much

Did anyone suggest she was looking for her sister?

Well you asked how she got Gabriella's permission..... I would assume she could just ask or like most people who add their close relatives.... They just do it

I should ask my daughter to remove me from her tree as she didn't ask...... But what's the point

I only have problems with very distant relatives adding living people they don't even know to their tree
