Are there any descendents of the above, my grandfather. He had 7 daughters&2

sons and they were brought up in Burleigh St; Sunderland. His wife's name was

Dorothy.

In later years he lived at the Barracks near the docks[Sunderland]

NB// My mother was one of his daughters. Regards :-)

John G seems to have married in 1912, and produced 10 children with his wife - assuming it's the right John G. (You'd need to get a copy of the marriage cert for father's name, to confirm)

You can find the records on freebmd

Thank you so much for this info which is my family. I really appreciate the

help you have given me. I have managed to add a few relatives to my tree but

having difficulty tracking some of them. However, you have supplied some

invaluable info which hopefully will lead me further into discovering more

relatives.

I cannot for some reason download or print the info I have already.

Once again, thankyou. Regards. Hilary.
