Hello Alan, so Ada was your grandad's niece? But it's Thomas's siblings (inc your grandad) and parents you want to investigate?

Could you let me know when Edward was born (and who he married) so can make sure looking for right family on census.

Alan, for the time being I'm struggling to find the right Louisa and William - there are a lot of Collins!

I'll throw this open to the rest of the helpers as some fresh eyes might find something!
