World War One / Identify this medal please
« on: Tuesday 22 November 22 08:49 GMT (UK)  »
Can someone tell me what this WW1 medal was awarded for?
It belongs to my cousin's grandad (along with many others) Frank Taylor b 1892 in Macclesfield.
I cannot find any service records for him. He was in the King's Liverpool Regiment.

Thank you

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / 1779 will of Richard Aylmer- translate please.
« on: Friday 15 July 22 15:22 BST (UK)  »
Could someone help with a translation of part of a 1779 Dublin will of Richard Aylmer.

This section names his children. Although some family trees only have the two boys,we think this names 2/3 girls too. He married in 1772 and died in 1779.

Many thanks

Can someone tell me exactly what this says please.

His actual will is 2 pages long,but this is at the end of it,and seems to be signed a year after his death?

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Sheffield Electoral roll 1940's onwards
« on: Wednesday 12 February 20 16:02 GMT (UK)  »
I have the Warriner family at 151 Fitzhubert Road, Sheffield C.B in 1939.

dad James b 1900
sons James  b 1923 
Brian b 1931
Barrie/Barry b 1936

All deceased.

Mum Lilian should be there too but isn't.

It is particularly James b 1923 that I am interested in.
He married Winifred Button in London in 1959,but died there in Jan 1961.
His marriage cert says that his previous marriage was dissolved,but we can't find one!

Does anyone have access to the electoral rolls to follow this family to 1959/60.

Many thanks

Carol
