Bllllubablubba, Bllubalubba- scuse me whilst I try to get my head round everything you're all sending us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amazing,astounding,tremendous- OUTSTANDING!!!!- I don't know enough words to thank you all- you've managed to make a 36 year old man from Withenshaw with a gob like the mersey tunnel go incredibly quiet- I fully expect him to be rocking in a corner shortly!!!! Everything you are all sending is just so................................... (pardon my french!) bloody wonderful!
Now all I have to do is prove the connection- his surname is Brett, the family have all told him that Charles was a direct ancestor of the family, as his dad said he was his great great grandad (although I don't think anyone realised how much of an impact was made by his death)- so we've got to search for the male line (my friends Grandfather was obviously a Brett 1st name unknown,his grandma was/is Hannah Kempster - no birth details known but around the 1920's) & I can't find Charles son Charles anywhere apart from 1861/71 but did find /come across another male Brett born around the dates of the other children on freebmd- can't find the right piece of paper right now- on the grounds that I might sound like I'm taking the Michael has anyone got any ideas on where to find other details on possible other sons?
For know I'll go back to my searching for Charles junior- Brott,Brett.Bratt I'm doing them all!!!!
Again you're fantastic
Rose
