Thanks Jen..

Yes it is the correct family....I do have info for them....I am trying to trace living relatives in that family....if possible....the decendents of charles seem to have disappeared apart from my dads line from James who married mary yates in 1934 and then promptly left her in about 1940 ish...

long shot but was  just hoping some one may recognise the family...

Thanks once again for your help.

It's also worth checking out the Surname Interests Table (SIT), to see whether others are researching the same name.

This can be found at http://surname.rootschat.com/ , there is a link to it at the top of each Rootschat page.

               

(While you're there, why not enter your own surname interests - the more people who enter their surnames, the more chance there will be of making a connection!)
