Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / Re: Hindley and Trower's in Sewerby and Bridlington

Hello Ivan, I have been busy moving house since we last spoke and have just recently had DNA Results back from Ancestry. Unsurprisingly they made a strong match with yours. Once I get my spare room sorted out I intend to start researching again and will be in touch with you if I find anything new. I rang Marlene to tell her we lost Mum two years ago, only to discover from Richard she had sadly passed away too. Never found much out before about the Irish side (Margaret Cox's family etc.,) And I was intrigued by the 22% Scandinavian in my DNA. At first though that could have come from Dad's side (The Hackney's) but then I saw you also have same percentage of it. My email is still the same (*) if you want to contact me any-time you are welcome. And I will let you know if I get any more info. Take care Gina

Lilly Hindley was present at my mum's birth in Hull 1921. Mum's mother was Florence Douglas, who was Lilly's sister. (Sadly Florence had to give her up for adoption, but that's another story) Lilly I believe ran a pub in High Street, Bridlington in 1966, which incidently is also where Beehive Terrace was located, where Lilly, Florence and Rosemary all lived years before. Florence was sadly killed in 1966 when she was run over by a car at the end of High Street, Brid. According to my research Lilly died two years later and is buried in Sewerby Road Cemetery in Bridlington. The grave number is BC Section 35. She did indeed have a daughter Kathleen (Kitty) who I believe had a daughter Linda and sons Kenneth, Keith and Terrence. On 192 there is a Linda M Trower living at 62 Scarborough Road, Bridlington. Could this be the grand daughter of Lilly Hindley? Might be worth pursuing! Let me know.
