Janet, the last post on here was over 4 years ago so doubt she's checking back for replies.

You could try sending Shineysteph a direct message by clicking on her name.

I am trying to find any ancestors or relatives of my Grandmother

The details I have are as follows:-
Doreen Cowie c1913 to 1993 probably from BARROW-IN-FURNESS

She Married at BARROW-IN-FURNESS 14/02/1933 to David Benzie

I think her father may have been called Nicholas

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
