I lost my dad. I remember holding his little finger one day and the next he was gone. That was over 70 years ago. He (Edward John King; 1803 Swindon) was married to Ivy Rose Slough but they seperated when I was 6 mths old. I never really met him. I've traced him back through Arthur(1880, Swindon), Lot(1846 Castle Eaton) and John (1809 Castle Eaton) on dad's line and through Kate Walker (1883,Cirencester) John Walker (1844 Swindon) William Walker (1809 Blackthorn). But I would like to find dad's other kids and their kids. Nelson William King (1806 Swindon) was an uncle. I know no siblings, nephews or nieces. I'm now in Melbourne, Australia.
