Hi
I’m looking information regarding George E Kennerdale
Born: 29th August 1904 Fairburn, Yorkshire.
No death date but he died in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire.

George married Lilian Brown 31st October 1925, sadly Lilian died 1927. Not sure if the had any family in that short time.

George remarried on the 10th July 1930 to Emily May Buckley in St Peters Huddersfield.
As far as I’m aware with information found on a tree on ancestry that George and Emily had 2 sons
Gerald born 28th April 1938, died April 1942, Yorkshire.
Geoffrey born 1932, died 20th February 2016, Yorkshire.

I can’t find any documentation of both births. I did find the marriage information on Emily and George.
Any information on Gerald and Geoffrey would be very much appreciated.

Kind regards,
Elaine

Down / Martin family, Hollymount, Woodgrange, Downpatrick
« on: Sunday 29 December 19 17:14 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,
I’m doing research into the Martin Family from Hollymount, Downpatrick.
My GG grandmother was Sarah Martin ( no DOB ).
She had a son David b 6 April 1875,Woodgrange, Hollymount, Downpatrick, no father listed on birth records.
David married Eliza Cochrane 14 May 1895. Eliza died 13 July 1902, they had no children.
David remarried in June 1903 to Margaret Ann Maginnis. David and Margaret Ann had 6 children
William James ( my grandfather ) b 12 June 1904
Alexander b 22 Nov 1905 d 18 Jan  1906
John b 16 July 1907 d 2 Dec 1907
Sarah b 22 June 1908
David b 2 Feb 1910
Jeannie b 13 Oct 1914.
On both of David’s marriage certificates it states John Ferris as father.
I’m trying to find out more on Sarah my GG grandmother, did she marry John Ferris or did she marry someone else, I’ve searched marriage records but can find nothing.
I did my DNA November  2018 but hasn’t really helped with information on the Martin family. I did find out that David b 2 Feb 1910 married a cousin Ellen Neill Killyleagh, her mother was Anna Maria Martin b 17 Jan 1870 in Hollymount, Downpatrick and Anna’s father a John Martin b about 1843.
Hoping someone can help 🤞

Armagh / McGivern family, Blackwatertown,Moy, Co Armagh
« on: Sunday 24 April 16 22:12 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to find information on the McGivern family of Blackwatertown, Moy.
Some of the family were adopted or fostered about the 1920's, there was Kathleen who was born 1920, Sarah and Fred. There was an older sister Susan born 1900, married Edward Cranney in 1921 and sttled in Derrycaw.
Kathleen married Thomas Leckey and settled in Banbridge. I'm trying to find out who their parents were and why they had been put into care, not sure if both parents had died.
Fred was in the merchant navy and I think he may have settled in England. Think there was other children as well.
All help would be much appreciated

Looking to see if anyone can help in my research. I'm trying to find information on a lady Alice Russell who sadly died in a house fire in Belfast in July of 1974. I've tried different ways to find this information, including contacting some of her family members and even looking in archive news articles. Sadly I've had no luck. Would appreciate any help or even any suggestions on how to find information.
