Hi Bernie

The 1911 for Denbighshire should be out by the summer. I think that you'll probably have to wait for that.

Have you checked for WW1 records for him?

thank you once again Gadget,the reason I am trying to locate the Thomas's is that in the back of my mind I remember an Uncle Pat and aunt Hannah from Shotton,I have found out he was Patrick Kindlin and she was Hannah nee Saint they got marriesd in1914 and Patrick was in the Welsh Fusiliers in Wrexham they got married in Connahs Quay I remember going to Ireland with him and his son 60yrs ago so they have got to be part of my family and thats what is bugging me,the son Bernard died a while ago although his widow still lives in Shotton I have tried to write to her but so far no responce I know they are part of my family the son Bernard came once a month to visit us in Liverpool.Its awful when something wont let you rest so you see that is why I keep Trying!!  thanks Bernie

Have you thought of checking on Patrick on the 1911? It might give some leads.

Also, I seem to remember Shrewsbury and  Co. Durham links - is it worth doing broader searches for William

hi yes i have tried to find Patrick he was in the Royal Welsh Fusiliers he was a reg soldier he married Hannah and had 4 kids 2 girls 2 boys Bernard was one boy who always visited Liverpool I can picture him to this day he was the only one who visited  he married a Winifred I wrote to her but no answer the strange thing is when I tried to find him on Roots I rec a reply from someone(!st reply they ever made) and she said I know of whom you speak he died of cancer and is buried at Hawarden? isnt that a strange replyI tried 4 times to contact her no luck.now I really am curious I hope I dont turn up any awful stuff,But I relly need to know where they fit in it can only be the Thomas's the Co Durham  conn was Richard Mark Turner married on Harriet he was my grans brother one of the younger kids that William Thomas took in when he married my Gt G/mothers niece Mary Brodigan.How I wish I could get the 1911 results!!  I rweally do appreciate your guidence  thank you Bernie

If Bernard was buried in Hawarden, maybe our friend Paul might be able to find a record - do you have his full name and approx date of burial?
