Thanks for your time Graham. Great photo too. I have to laugh at the no parking sign outside. Seems even years ago people had problems

Alanb. When i e-mailed Mr Adolph he confirmed the discovery channel had made the program and he could not understand why they said they had not.
He then joked maybe they thought i was rubbish.
Hi jc2Gred. The program name does not ring a bell. But thanks it was Anthony Adolph.
I only saw one eposode caught it by accident it was about a family who Mr Adolph traced back to see if they were related to Dick Turpin.

Great will watch that.
Wasn't there a program about 8 years ago that traced ordinary people and linked them with famous people.
I saw one which linked someone with dick Turpin. It was on Discovery channel. I wrote to the channel and they said they had never made such a program so i got in touch with the genealogist who was on the program because i remember his name when the credits were shown at the end of the program then a few months later i saw his name in a genealogist magazine can't remember if his first name or second name was Adolf but it was one of them and he e-mailed me back and said yes there was such a program. Search me why discovery channel said they did not make it. The name of it escapes me at the moment.

Hi i have whittled it down to three. I know he was born in 1850 and I'm quite sure he died in the areas where my three suspects died. one was aged 70 died in 1920. The second was 73 and died in 1923. Third 85 and died 1936.
I know his second Wife's name [ first Wife deceased] but as you say it's not necessary her who would have reported the death.
Thanks for your imput.
ps. I'm also quite certain he died after 1911

Thanks for that Aghadowey. I'm not familiar with Ireland but from what i recall i think it was on the East coast of Ireland and they ended up in Birkenhead which is almost horizontal so to speak from Bright.
I did try looking for Bright a couple of weeks ago but could not find it but around 5 years ago i do recall it was on the east coast not sure if it was southern or northern Ireland.
Thanks for the links too.Much appreciated

Thanks for the infor Shanew147. I'm led to believe they came from somewhere called Bright in Ireland. That was when i fell off the genealogy horse. So have to dig them out. I did remember trying to find this town/ city but to no avail.
Thanks again for the links
