Looking for Graham family members
« on: Sunday 28 February 16 07:01 GMT (UK) »
Hi there

I am looking for the children and (*) and (*) Graham who emigrated to Canada from Glasgow in the early 1960s.  They left with one child, (*), and had two others in Canada, possibly Winnipeg.  I think the names of the other children are (*).  We believe (*) may be in the Canadian Air Force.

(*) are my first cousins, their mother being my dad's youngest sister.

If anyone has any information on the family, I would be extremely grateful to hear from you.

Thank you

Carol Hope

You might have some luck at this link to the telephone directory. There are a number of Grahams listed but you might recognize a name or initial. Full contact info is generally provided. I put just Graham in the name and Manitoba in the location. You could narrow things down further.

Once you have made 2 more posts, even just to say "Hi", you will be able to access the PM (private message) system and folks can hopefully be of assistance through that route.

HI,

Welcome to RootsChat

New Posters usually need to make 2 posts before being able to use the personal message system - now you have 2 posts you should be able to contact Myangel1920 by private message.
Click on her name in the left hand margin, on the next screen "send pm" which takes you to a message screen - write your message and send.

This is the link to the Graham thread

Good Luck
Sandra
