John Report 31 Jul 2011 00:10

I am looking to complete my research on John Bassett and his family in Kingswinford, John Born in 1848 eventually moved to Barrow in Furness, I know about his family in Barrow but I am trying to prove if my research is correct about his father and Mother brothers and sisters and anything further back in the tree, if any information proves you have the right family and are willing to either give me that information if you have it or are willing to go to the records office in Dudley and research the family I would be willing to pay for your time providing the information ties in with mine.
