There's a death in Kent in 1993. Does this sound correct?

The informant could be a relative.

Hi.. I have emaild you but as im new to this im not sure if you will recieve it.
I have read your post and i strongly believe that there is a great chance that we maybe searching the same family i have spoken to my mum and she has confirmed everything that you have wrote to being the same dad as mine. His mum was hazel and as for the brother you think is called ethan my mum is almost certain that his name is Ivan but she also is not 100%. If u also think that maybe theres a chance then i would love to hear from you and maybe answer a few questions??
:-) my name is rachel.

Try clicking on gareth's name in his opening post on this thread.
You can then write to him direct and if he has the same e mail address as when he posted here, GR staff will send an e mail to him to say he has a message in his In box.

Hi have sent a pm to him back in January so I'm assuming its going to be a waiting game.
Thanks for advice :-D
