sheilafromdownunder Report 28 Aug 2015 08:48

I am trying to find any information I can about Mavis R Wharton born in Wolverhampton 1939 and died I believe in 2003. Her mother was Florence Rhoda Wharton 1911-1993 ( my Aunt Rhoda ) & father was Jack Wharton born 1907 - ?. She Mavis R did 2 sisters Madge R born in 1936 and married in 1959 & an other sister Maureen was born in 1945 and married in 1965 again I think . All around Wolverhampton again I think We were not close with this side of the family , but I now would like to know
Sheila ------ Ps I have copied & pasted his post as it would seem that they are alive , and I did not want to get into trouble for Admin . Am now deleting the other thread .
Thank you
