No i havent researched the siblings ..Yet.

Iam doing that as we speak, but i thought i would put a post on here where it says " research your living relatives", to see if anyone recognised the names of the siblings that i have. i didnt expect people to search them for me, i was looking for people that might know them as i said in my original post.

Thank you again for the information you have given me,, its a great help.

Hi again reggie,

Please could i ask, what is prob a simple question to you, but i cant get my head round it ( i have only been doing english side of the family for a couple of months and found it a lot more tricky than my scottish side).

How did you get Alice being married to Frederick Bachelor & Eva & Winnifreds death with a different surname???

How would you put that in a search when i dont know their Married names???

Thank you again

Tina

Your best bet is to use the search trees facility to see if anyone is researching the family
