Hi I am helping a fried out, she is stuck on her grandfather,

        Edward Sheridan DOB 10/9/1920. Castleblayney Co Monaghan   Ireland
                                 Died Oct 1987 Birmingham

She and the family believed he had a partner…I know the info is scant but any info would be appreciated

Hi everyone and happy new year.

Please this is a very very long shot.  I will not be disappointed if no one can help me.  I am contacting the local Weaverham newspaper for an appeal.

My mother is getting on 87. She has been telling me of her childhood and when she was evacuated from Liverpool to Weaverham 1939-1945.  She was 4 in 1939.

I am desperately trying to trace the family who took her in.  I have tried using ancestry and find my past to no avail.

My mums memory I am afraid is failing her.
This is all I have gathered:  the families surname seems to have been Jones.

During this time the man of the house Mr Jones was at home so he must have been in a reserved occupation or too old to serve.  Obviously the wife name was also Jones.

There was an elderly lady also living in the house, my mum thinks she was an invalid due to a possible stroke.

There was also a daughter, she was at the age where she got married when my mum lived at the house she believes the daughters name was Ann Jones possibly born @1919.  She may have married someone in the RAF named George.

I am so sorry there isn’t any detail, but as I said it is a long shot.
My mums health is slowly deteriorating and I would like to provide her with more details about the family who were so kind.

When my mum returned to Liverpool she lived in abject poverty and cruelty until my dad married mum and had three sons and we all live her.

Kind Regards
Keith

Good Afternoon,

I am carrying out some family research on the Wilson family and have come to a dead end.  Hence why i am here.

I am trying to trace and obtain more details of a Thomas Wilson DOB: @1790 Cumberland died @ 1842 Bolton Lancs ? Married a Mary Wilkinson in 1807. Mary's details are DOB: @1786 Died: 1831.  Their son Peter Wilson was born 1819 in Workington Cumberland. 

I would like to take The Wilson line back from Thomas 1790,  I have no further details of his Mother or Father.  I hope someone can assist me?


Regards
Keith

I need some desperate help.  I have become totally confused using a familiar genealogy site.

I am tracing my late grans family from Liverpool to Scotland and more to the point Glasgow.

I have got as far as:

James Harvie DOB: 24 April 1763 Glasgow, married Margaret Corse DOB: 1767 Glasgow.   Married 6 July 1788 Glasgow.
Son: James DOB: 1789 Glasgow.

My issue is taking the father and mother James and Margaret father back.
The data from the site is confusing.

I have no bmd certs nor census data.
