For some time I have been trying to find the parents of my brickwall ancestor but with no luck, I have therefore drawn up an events timeline to try to help.
I have listed below all the events I hold documents for, can anybody add to this or let me know if they come across any of the names mentioned around these time in order that I may find a link.
Happy Xmas & New Year
Adrian Ballard.
