Mary Report 1 Dec 2012 11:43

I am looking for information/relatives of the Joyce family who lived at Willington Quay, Newcastle until approximately 1950.

Mother was Mary, daughters Catherine and Margaret, sons Thomas, Patrick, Martin, John and maybe others.

Mary, 2 things!
Firstly check for matches with other members by using 'search all trees' - found in search box above.
Secondly, specify what you mean by 'any information'.

Could you give some years of birth please? You may be to identify them on http://www.freebmd.org.uk/ especially if you can find a marriage between Mr Joyce and Mary. That would give her maiden name which you can cross reference for the births.

Middle initials would help, to be found on the birth index.

Have you searched trees to see if anyone has them listed??

Thanks for suggestions, as you can probably tell I am not very experienced in this kind of reseach, and am obviously quite niave. I will follow suggestions and see what I can find.

Ancestry links Martin's birth to this..........it may, of course, be a 'red herring'

My sub doesn't include access to this set of records
