Dorothy,

If you use SEARCH at the top left hand of the page as I suggested in my pm, you will find 5 matches for Charles Hills. You can make contact with the tree owners from the information that appears on the Search.

If Harry's birthdate is correct on 1911 census, this could be his birth registration:

I couldn't find one for Harry Henry.

Perhaps I can explain. On Tuesday I received a pm from Dorothy which read:

I have only just found you message in the Tryng to find section from 2 years ago! !Are the people you mention relatives of yours. I've never heard of them, but the Gale Hills surname sounds like it could be a connection.

I couldn't find the message Dorothy was talking about so asked her to copy and paste it so I could sort her query out

I hadn't looked on Trying to Find since Tuesday, and she didn't pm me with the answer.

I am not sure what you have done Dorothy but it looks as if you have just duplicated everything on here along with a whole load of 'bumff' and re-pasted it.??

Was it your intention to 'bump' up your thread for some more help or is there anything new included in all that??

If you were just 'bumping up', the best way is just to add a message saying 'more help please' or something similar.

Choose the 'add' button at bottom of the posts - type your message in the box and click 'submit.

It might be helpful if you go to your latest message and click on delete at the bottom of the message, to delete just that message, not the whole thread, then add a new message with what you actually want to say?

Best of luck,

Dea x
