There are two people called Timmins living in Buxton.If you look on 192.com ,it will give you the address' of them ,as well as the telephone numbers.
It may be worth a go ,at the very worst ,they won't know anything.But it is not a common name and they may be able to help.
Hope this helps as I have a cousin in the same situation who would dearly love to find out about her father ,but sadly it is not to be .
Wishing you good luck
Ninky

Hi Von,
I've merged your other thread with this one to keep all the info in one place (Replies #15 - #20)
Have you seen this topic:
Topic: Timmins - Dudley
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,1672.0.html
I don't know if you have enough to go on yet, to make any connections with them,
but it's worth a look, and maybe an ask 
Good luck,
Bob

Hi Carole,the weather here is pretty nice,sunny and warm,although it looks like we may get a shower later.
By the way,im not an only child,i believe my mother had another child with my father,his name is Don,my mother went on to have more children with my step father.
My Father is probably going by the name donald or don.
I have a very confusing life dont i?..lol
Von.

Hello Von
Seems you are correct,your parents did indeed have another baby.
Donald L Timmins mothers maiden name Grindey,was born in Stockport(Cheshire) in Sept 1952 ref number 10a page 729.
There is a person of that name on the 2003 infodisk.However using one of the more recent directories does not find him.
I am going to PM you with the address I've found,and its up to you if you want to take the slight chance that...
A, It's the right person
B, If he's no longer there,someone knows where he went to.
Going to look for your grandad's death info now.Glad we know what his name is........didn't realise you had another thread going alongside(Thanks Berlin Bob  )
All the best
Carol

Hi Carol,i think that info is wrong,my brother Donald was born (*) though.
Unless my Mother was lieing,which she did alot of to hide her past.
I did hear that my Father was always in trouble with the law and i seem to remember someone saying he went to prison,again not sure if this is true.
I dont know what prison,as im sure they would have records.
Thanks.
Von.

Hello Von
It could still be him........that date is when the birth was registered and would have been any time during July/Aug/Sept 1952.

Von,
Your grandfather Albert Percy Timmins who was born on 7 Nov 1900,died in Stockport in the SEpt 1/4 of 1970. Ref is Volume 10a page 1400.
You could get the cert and find out if he left a will-by writing to the
Principal Probate Registry
LONDON Probate Department
Principal Registry of the Family Division
First Avenue House
42-49, High Holborn
London WC1V 6NP
Tel: 020 7947 6939/6043/7431/7414/6946
Email : maria.boulby[AT]hmcourts-service.gsi.gov.uk
Maybe your dad's name was mentioned as informant or perhaps grandchildrens names if they were beneficiaries.
The most up to date address we can find him at for definite the better.
Carol

I'm sorry to say but I think I've found his death.
Don't forget it's those who are left who give the info-which may not always be spot on.They may not have known the exact DOB or the person may have tried to pretend they were younger than they really were.
Albert Donald TIMMINS died in the March 1/4 of 1980 in Cambridge.
His DOB has been given as 18th Dec 1930......and the ref for the death cert is
Volume 9 page 0622
The death cert will usually give you a family members name ie wife or child.
If you wished to apply for the cert,and managed to get a name and address from 1980,please post again and I'll seeif I can find any family members.
Hope this helps in your search for the truth ,even if it's not from the person you had hoped to hear it from.
Regards
Carol
