Hello, my name is Fred. I am trying to find info on William Hancock( spelling may vary) who was born about 1920-1925 in Ireland and lived with my Aunt Ellen in Elsecar, Yorkshire in 1945. He might have been a coal miner. TYVM for looking.

The birth of a William Robert Hancock was registered in Lurgan, Co Armagh in the third quarter of 1921.

Thank You for both replies. I've done the "usual suspect"searches & was hoping someone might have him in their tree. Unfortunately, I don't have a spelling or any 2nd names. Cheers, Fred

Once again, Thank you. I'm new to all this and need to learn a lot, fast. The previous reply gave me William & Margaret's wedding and had William resident in Dumbarton so they may have emigrated and then come back for this wedding??
