Sylvia Mcneil - Singer please help
« on: Monday 16 November 09 14:06 GMT (UK) »
Hi there,

I am searching for a Sylvia Mcneil - born in August in Yorkshire.
She went onto star in the west end and then onto other television programmes such as The Benny Hill Show.

She lived in Austrailia for a while then went on to do tours in the UK.

I am searching for her as she is linked to my family.

If you have any details at all please help

I am searching for a Sylvia Mcneil - born in August in Yorkshire.

What year would this be  8)

Please note that Rootschat has a policy of not allowing any names of those still alive to be posted though.

Best to tell us all you know,mother or fathers or siblings names,places dates,certificates etc,so we don't duplicate anything you already have.

Hi,

Unforuantly I don't have any of that. I'm kind of just stuck with her name and DOB and where she was born.

Good find Tati- trouble is we're probably veering into the realms of someone who is still alive here and Rootschat does not allow nanmes of those still living to be posted.

I think you might be best reading some of the 'How to find living people' threads'

Claire, you might consider getting in touch with Equity, the actors and show business union.  They may have some records on your missing relative.

Don't use the search box on the website, it's not fully working yet.  You may have to email them  :)
