Hi

I can see two people with the same name one born 1888 and the other 1894, could you confirm the year of birth and I am sure we can help you.  :D

Just discovered this site and was interested to see my name - George Davison Green. I was named after my grandfather who lived in South Shields but the family have their roots in Boldon Colliey. My father Colin in in his 80s. I'll show him the information above and see if he recognises any names.
