Folkes / Lynch family
« on: Sunday 07 July 13 12:54 BST (UK) »
Sorry in advance if this is long and confusing. There are so many people here who are great with finding records, I thought it I would give it a go and ask here.


I am looking for a connection between a living person and my family

My family has told me *living*  is the grandson of my ggrandmothers sister.

I have found 2 birth dates for him, I'm also having a hard time linking him to  my family.


My ggrandmother is a hard woman to trace the name she used is Kathleen Lynch.
b: 1892 d:1970
Her death record shows her as Catherine ( Apparently her name was Catherine but hated it so made everyone call her Kathleen.
She married Louis Stanley Whitby 1897-1980

Apparently she had a brother named James Mory Lynch b: 1885 - d: unknown
James married Mildred Whitby:1895-1983

( Mildred Whitby and Louis Whitby were brother and sister)
( kathleen/Catherine and James were brother and sister)

I don't Kathleen's parents names and don't know any info about any other siblings.

I have found some death info about *living's*  wife, her name was Karen Moore she died 28 Feb 2013

Oh yes sorry, I knew that. I didn't even think. I will edit my post.

Even help in tracing kathleen/catherine and her brother might help

Thank you :)

H was my grandfather - Hugh Whitby died in 2001
We know a lot of information about the Whitby side of our family but all the other parts are very hard to trace.
