Find Ancestors

Thanks Michelle
I think it might be a possibility. William was with the family in 1861 in the village of Burnage, Manchester who have their own website and a list of census names for 1861. William's father was on the list so I contacted the web site and they sent me a list of all the family members in 1861 one of which was the son William. No mention of wife etc. The only other possibility is he died or emigrated but I have looked with no success. I will look at your findings in more detail and see if I can find any other links to all the names. Thank you so much for all your time.

Hi Michelle

I am trying to trace a Arthur Henry Hammond
born c 1881 died 1935 aged 54
He married (or didnt as I cant find marriage cert) Daisy Dorothy Eustace and they had 5 children Kathleen, Olive, Eileen, Leslie and Sylvia.
Arthur is my mother in laws father but she was only 9 when he died and does not know anything about him other then they lived in Essex and he worked in London as an Antiques Warehouseman.
Any help would be appreciated

Thanks for your time
Regards Kim Ross

Hi Michelle

I was wondering if you could help me find Walter Skippings born 1892. After WW2 he split up with his first wife and went upto Scotland to live,he met a Janet Low vallance ,had 2 sons before she married Walter and were registered in their mothers name, think one was called George. Walter was a private in the Royal Scots when he married Janet on the 28th November 1914 in Edinburgh, they had 3 more children. Janet died in 1927, the two older boys stayed in Scotland with their grandmother but the 3 younger ones were put in an Orphanage and they were sent to Australia.
Was wondering if you could find out anything for me Please.
Many Thanks for your time.
Karen
