William James Magee - Southport
« on: Friday 15 August 14 17:55 BST (UK) »
Hi,

William James Magee is my great grandfather, he was born in Belfast in 1908 and lived there until at least 1939. I am unsure about when he moved to Southport, England but my mother believes that he had another family. He died in 1975. Really curious for any information on him.

Many thanks

P.S I also have a few pictures of him.
