I am totally new at this so please bear with me.  I am Willie’s Son’s Sis.  At least one of them.  I am hoping to be in contact with some of the people who had been corresponding with Willie’s Son.  Maybe we can help each other.  Hope to hear from someone.

Hello and welcome  :)

I remember the threads when we were looking  for Willie :) I did some research on the Welsh side, if I remember correctly.

I do hope someone will see this and be able to help you link up with others.

Best wishes

Thank you.  You did do research on the Welsh side and thank you for that.  Someone named 2ron2 was saying that his Grandmother, I believe, was a sister to Willie’s first wife, Alberta.  I don’t know much about that side of the family though.  I am still hoping somehow, to learn what happened to Willie’s birth father, Charles Woods, and why he never went back to the orphanage for his two sons.  That was something my father never got over.

I've just sent 2ron2 a message referencing this thread, I hope he gets it as he's not been on for a couple of years.

Thank you.  I hope he does get the message.  The reason there have not been any posts from Willie’s Son - Roger - is he passed away very suddenly in September 2017.  Just before then, I believe he was beginning to communicate with 2ron2.

Hi.
Thank you for answering.  In reading previous posts between you and my brother, Roger, I saw that you had said you were related to Alberta Kelly.  My Father’s first wife.  I didn’t know she had a sister, Roberta?  She was your Grandmother?  I knew she had a sister Greta and another Frances.  You also mentioned Shirley Janes and asked how she fit in this.  Also, I would like to correct the spelling of Thistlewaite.  It is actually Thistlethwaite.
