Member Since: April 2005 Posts: 43 Send Message	I am trying to find more info about my maternal grandfather - John Wright - he was born around 1899 but i dont know where. he married Dorothy Ada Sawyer in 1917 in Reading - he was a soldier at that time. He and Dorothy had 5 children - my mum was the youngest - they lived in the Kent area at that time. John and Dorothy divorced around 1944 and John re-married - i have no info about this marriage. John died in 1966 - any information about John's birth date/place/family would be appreciated. thanks Jo
