I am trying to find any information about my grandfather and grandmother, my fathers name was Frank James Bennett, he had one brother, possibly called John who died in the second world war, he had two sisters, Dorothy married name Beeton, and Ivy I can´t remember her married name. My Father was born in March 1915 and died July 1981. He married my mother Dorothy Lillian Seal in March 1938? His father and mother I believe were called Frank/Rose. I don´t have any other information. I have only just begun on my quest, I have found a lot of information on my mothers side. Now for my fathers side. I hope someone can help me. Thanks anyway.

found his death entry it says his birthdate was 30/3/1915 so that must be his birth entry as there arn't any Frank J's in the first quarter of 1915
