I can't believe this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I went to bed last night thinking that the Rootschatters were on the trail but hadn't really caught up with the quarry.

I sign on today and not only have they caught up with him, they've delivered him first class!!!!

I am so grateful to you all for this work.

The vast majority of my family tree is within the UK so I have limited my Ancestry subscription to UK only, but I needed experts with a worldwide subscription to find George. Rootschat should be claiming a reward from Ancestry for so successfully advertising the benefits of a worldwide subscription!!!

Thank you again.

Susan found him in the US and then I decided to look at the LDS mormon family search site,and knowing that he was in the US found his death there.
So in the end it was info from the free LDS site that clinched it.

Hi, I've just discovered this thread and would like to discuss some of the content with Stanza.

I am a direct descendant of Mary Allan Harrower (George's half-sister, born in Sudbury in 1911), she was my paternal grandmother, and I was curious to read that you may have access to early family photos of the Harrower family?

Also, I have quite detailed information on Mary's family history, including the Harrower and Lauder sides.  Would like to see if there are any areas we could help each other out?

(I'm based in Glasgow, Scotland)
