My Great Grandfather was John Robert Parkin,My Grandad was William Parkin He married Ethel Todd and lived at 30 Henry St sunderland.William had,as far as im aware siblings. Doris,Rose,Hilda and john there maybe more.
I dont know at this time what John Parkins'wifes name was,,I do know that the name Mary and Elizabeth are in the family.

All of you in this thread!

You should all start your own threads

- with *all* the info you have about the people you're trying to find out about

- stating exactly what it is you're looking for (ancestors, living cousins ..?)

See this thread for some helpful tips:
