REED BARBOUR « on: Tuesday 31 May 05 17:04 BST (UK) »
Hello. I'm looking for my Great Grandfather HARRY BARBOUR who married my Great Nan POLLY (MARY) REED who was born 1891 in Barrow In Furness, which was then part of Lancashire, England. They married Oct-Dec 1912 at Barrow and had two daughters ELSIE BARBOUR (1912) and my Nan RHODA BARBOUR (1915) both also born at Barrow. At the time of RHODA's birth they lived at Vickerstown, Walney, Barrow. HARRY BARBOUR is noted on their birth certificates as 'Blacksmith (Journeyman)' but this is the only solid information I have. It is possible that HARRY may have died quite young, maybe as a casualty of WW1 as POLLY remarried when her daughters were quite young and brought the girls up with her new husband who was called COPE, a methodist minister, at Hawcoat, Barrow. Any help at all will be vey much appreciated, Kerry
