John William Bellairs

[joneilish]

I am trying to find out more about my Grandfather (John William Bellairs) and his predecessors.
He was born in 1909 in Sheffield and his father was also called John William.
I believe the name Bellairs originated from France but otherwise I know very little about this branch of my family tree.
If anyone could shed any light I would be grateful.

Thanks for trying to help with my query.
I have since found out that John William Bellairs was born 08/03/1909 at 13court, 7house, Sussex Street, Sheffield. His mother was called Kate Elizabeth formerly Dickinson.
I'm not surethe family in your reply are related or not.
Any ideas?
