Member Since: May 2006 Posts: 47 Send Message	Hi I am trying to find relatives of Alec Robinson who married Winnie DUFFY in Jarrow County Durham. In 1937 they moved from Watson Street Jarrow to Wark Crescent Primrose before emigrating to Australia. Winnie had a brother Pat known as Paddy, who I believe moved to Swiss Cottage in London. Winnie and Peggy's mother was Mary. My Dad lived next door to Winnie and Peggy and would like to contact any relatives. Reards Tanya
