Can anyone help me please :-) I would like to know how to obtain a list of all the living people with the surname Bridgwater who may be in and around the Chribury area in Shropshire.

I obtained a list quite a few years ago, but can't remember how I did it - the reason I want this is so that I can write to each and everyone in order to find any relatives I have out there, as I seem to have hit a brick wall.

Thanks :-)

Hi Elaine

You should really have posted this on Genealogy chat as this board is for sugesstions you would like to make to GR about the site, but I would say something like 192.com or Living relatives search on ancestry or BT online

I take it you have already tried the search trees?
