I am trying to find any descendants of John (Jack) Wright born about 1919 and died in 1966. He was my stepfather and married Frieda Stevens in 1965 but died suddenly in 1966. Jack lived on Bowling St Mansfield before moving to Woodhouse Road Mansfield. I do know that one of his relations a guy called Raymond had a cobblers in the market place in Mansfield Woodhouse and used to live on Yorke Street. I also think he had 2 sisters but their names escape me. So if there is any one out there who knows any of his family I would love to hear from you
Regards

Wouldn't he have mentioned any descendants (children)?

Had he been married before he met your mother?

Thanks for the reply
No he was not married before but he had at least 2 sisters living in Mansfield and a couple of cousin's as well but the only name I can remember is Raymond. I have a photo of all his family, I think I will try to get it in the local paper to see if that brings any results.

So he didn't have any descendants...............

His birth should be on freebmd - with the info from that, you will be able to find the names of his siblings.

If you get his marriage cert, you will be able to verify the name of his father..........
