I am frustrated, I could not do this full time, when you ask a question no-one answers not into a private message
I am doing this for my sister in law Jean Kellett who is 87 and dearly want to answer her questions about the Collinsons
1. I have managed to get her fathers birth and death (which took me all week to do)
Where can I go from here, after the death it says England & Wales deaths 1837 to 2007 and Surrey Northern, Surrey, England. His name was Arthur Collinson born 1910 and he died in 1962.
3. The last I saw her (I live in Spain) she was remembering how one of the brothers used to play with her - Arthur's brothers were JARARD COLLINSONborn 1912 who married Elise M Palmley in 1945 and had a child there is a dash before the 1945 so don't know whether that was the marriage date or birth of child. I don't know where he lived but the child is likely to be alive (hopefully)
4. There is also Joseph born in 1910 I havent found anything else about him.
Jean was the born out of wedlock and her mother's name was Burrows. Arthur suddenly she says upped sticks when she was a teenager and left Kendal with a woman. He lived with the Burrows family until leaving Kendal and I suppose he thought he had seen her grow up and it was his time to get a life.
I don't know where to go next, I have put into the computer the grandparents who were Joseph and Ada Taylor born 1874 and 1878 and there is someone on this web site who has a list of the boys but hasn't answered a private message or a message on the board. I just wondered if the writer has died. Joseph was a clog maker in Winfell (it says Whinfell i think) Penrith, and my heart raced but I have got absolutely nowhere.
How can you all sit there and do your family tree with so much frustration and difficulty. Can anyone point me in the right direction now..... Would be appreciated very much. Anne Barnett
