Hammersmith area London
« on: Saturday 15 July 23 08:11 BST (UK) »
Hi
My grandfather lived at Blythe Rd in Hammersmith for 10 years in 1940's 1950's with his partner. Their names were William (Billy) and Alexandra McKegg. Billy was originally from North Yorkshire and Alexandra from Finland. I am wondering if anyone here either remembers them or is a living relative who may have information or photographs of them. I have been unable to locate a photo of my grandfather Billy.
Thanks in anticipation

Not really for living relatives  :) 

This is a place for searching for ancestors and we are strictly not allowed to discuss anyone who may still be living.

Your best bet for photographs is to see if anyone has a family tree with them on then you can contact them privately for information.

A tree on Ancestry has a photo of his father but none of him.  Link to the tree requires an Ancestry subscription
