I will start to put my family tree together in the next few day 's !

I am searching on two fronts ! My dad's father's side of the family Idris Hopkins (Mountain Ash) and his mum's family from Dorking in Surrey (originally from Edenbridge) his mum was Evelyn , her father was John Thomas Brooker who owned the British Timber Works in Dorking.
My dad is 88yrs old in a week or so and apart from his mum and dad he has never met any other relative !
