Hi not sure if this is still active.

John McKee son of Robert and Jane is my gr gr grandfather

John's son Walter married Maggie fisher. Walter died when he was 29 leaving two young children. My gr grandmother married again and moved to Gargrave in Yorkshire with the two children (my grandmother and her brother). Have literally just arrived back from a visit to whitehaven to see John's old shop on church and sandhills lane where their temperance hotel was.

Lovely trip
