Hello Jane.
I wonder if you could help me I'm looking for James Mcgowan all I know is that my great
grandparents james and Mary (nee wood) gave birth to a boy called george alma in 1874y I think Mary died as george was adopted later that year. My family has always believed that there was a scotish connection I'm not sure maybe Irish If I could find marrage details it would give me birth dates I have tried with no results
maybe you will have more luck it would be really good if you can. Thank you in antisipation. Pat

Hi Jane
Is it possible to do an address search on the 1901 census?
Thomas Bancroft b1871 lived in wellington street, branch 4, Burton in 1901.
I want to know who else lived in the "branch" numbers of wellington street.
It's a small street off the main wellington street. I have been told that many of my relatives lived in that row of houses.

Thanks
Jane

Thank you Jane, you are great I guess james remains elusive but I will keep trying. Could you tell me if it is possible to find out if George and Mary Elisa had other children other than my dad George Alma Mcgowan the second born 1910 the stories go that there were two children before my dad if that is the case we have no names so Im sure the answer will be no. Thanks again=Pat
