Who did my Uncle Michael Blake marry?
« on: Sunday 10 December 17 16:29 GMT (UK) »
Hi I am trying to find out who my late Uncle Michael Blake married. All I remember was his wifes first name was Anne. I believe her family or her owned a pub in Dungannon. They may have married either in Belfast or Dungannon in the mid 40s or earlier  and had 2 children. If anyone can help I would be most grateful. Gerry

What information do you know about your uncle, starting with his year of birth?

Yes I did view it ok as you suggested but thought I would get a copy of the original just to add to my file. The family he married into are still in the pub business in what appears to be the same building I remember as a child and my daughter in law tells me her family have connections to them. It really is a small world!! Thank you once again for your help, you really have been a great help to me every time I put a question on this site. Thank you.  :)
