I am looking for my maternal grandmothers relatives. Her name was Dorothy Reed. Her mother was Elizabeth Nicholson and she lived in the West Hartlepool area with her two sisters Mary (who became a Thompson when she married) and Lydia (who died in childbirth) - her dauther Phyllis lived with my grandmother and her sister Nora and their mother Elizabeth. There was also a brother Edward Nicholson. Elizabeth Nicholson became a Reed when she married - her husband died after the First World War as a result of being gassed whilst in service. in the forces for his country. Elizabeth did not marry again - I am sure of that. There was also an Olive Nicholson - but we are not sure of the connection - maybe an Auntie. Please can anyone help - Thankyou.
