Back again. John Gilchrist born Leeds 1895, parents Maud & Charles. Found john in 1901 and 1911 census records, then he disapears. Could he have been killed in the war.

Thank you. Is there only 1 person with the Gilchrist family history, on the line that I have been following. How does the process work, i.e. do you put the surname in their search and see who appears.

I would love to be in contact with the person that has the Gilchrist family history on Anc, which I am not a member of.

Many thanks. The only birth I could find for 1919 for Emily was a mother's name of Dawson. May be 1 for Edna Gilchrist born 1923, who may have married Leonard Chaddock in 1954, in Leeds.

Hi Queenie, is there any chance that you can tell me who James and daughter, Lillian, were living with in 1921, even it is only the Head of the Houses name.

They are all related, from the start in Scotland through to the 21st century.

Thank you for your help, now it makes sense. Putting the originalm picture together, John & Margaret came down from Scotland and their next children were born in Huddersfield. A watchmakers business was started in Huddersfield and run by Margaret and John was working out of a workshop in Leeds, By 1871 John had left his family for a new adventure.
