Yes - I know it's like trying to find a needle in a hystack when looking for a Taylor (there are so many of them!) but i am desperately trying to find my great Grandad Robert Hy Taylor born 1848 - he says in Yarmouth in Norfolk (in the 1901 cencus). He was married to Delia Glynn - problem is he was taken up to scotland when quite young to be educated - does this ring any bells with anyone??????

Thanks for your help - and good luck with whoever you are looking for!
