Hi

I am looking for information on my Great Grandfather siblings:

Mary Fellows Bradford born 1894/5
Elsie May Bradford born 1907/8
William Henry Bradford born 1902/3

My nan also mentioned a Auntie Kate or Kathleen that lived in the Dudley/High Arcal area. Any information on her would be great.

If that's the correct family in 1911, you have the wrong second name for Joseph.......

If, however, your name info is accurate, the family in 1911 is not 'yours'

Have you done any research yourself on freebmd......to verify the accuracy of the names?

Ben,

Why have you started a new thread? Most of this info is on your original thread.

Oh NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why don't people read the RULES?

Ben

Ben Report 14 Jul 2011 11:12

The info is correct... my great grandfather is Joseph james Bradford not Joseph John as originally typed.

I was advised by a volunteer member on here to start a new thread because i want information on Elsie May, Mary Fellows and William Henry..... not Flossy skinner and Joseph Bradford which the original thread was for.

Flick i read the rules and sought guidance prior to posting this thread

It's still best to keep to one thread as there is information on the other thread about place of birth and age etc. of these people.

At the very least you should have put a link to the other thread so helpers could see that information.

How do i set up a link

KathleenBell

KathleenBell Report 14 Jul 2011 11:22

In the toolbar at the top of the page it will say www.genesreunited etc. and finish with a thread number. If you highlight all of that and copy it and then add it to your post by pasting it, it will become a link.

Through carry out a bit more research I have found that Katie Bradford is his Aunt not his sister as previously thought. There is only 10 year age difference so this maybe why there was some confusion.

She was born in 1889 in Sedgeley, Staffs and her father was Joseph Bradford and Emily Davies.

My nan is almost certain that her married name may have been Mansfield, but i cant find any record of her getting married etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi, I am struggling to find any information on Katie Alcock, I believe she is the cousin of my great grandad Joseph Bradford.

She lived in High Ercal (I think) although she is now obviously deceased it would be nice to find out if she had any family and what happened to them.

Her married name may have been Mansfield

Could someone help me track down the family of my Grandad Joseph Bradford siblings, he had 3

Mary F Bradford
William Henry Bradford
Emily Bradford

I am also trying to trace a cousin or aunt of Joseph called Katie Bradford, who was a similar age to Joseph. Her married name may have been Mansfield and we think she lived in High Ercal.

I would love to know if these people had children and married as my ultimate aim is to find there living ancestors.

Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated
