I am looking for my cousins (or descendants of) whom I have never met, they are Peter and Jacqueline Wright, their parents were Vi (nee Groves) and Jack Wright (died when he was in his forties). Believed to have live in the Mitcham area. Jack was originally from Horley, Surrey. If anyone knows Peter or Jacqueline please contact me

Thank you
Marion

unlikely any of the people you are looking for will see your posting Marion - suggest you use Search Trees tab top of this page to see if there are any connections on this site

also, you need to give some relevant dates

I think they were born in the 40's? Jaqueline likely to have married. This is going to be a real struggle with these names..
If you have a record of Jack's death I might be inclined to get the cert, in order to get an address and see who the informant was. Might help or might not!
You might then be able to look for them at Friends Reunited or Facebook.

Thanks I have been trying for years to find them. I have no idea how old they will be even, my dad gave me what he knew, but he died two years ago and I can no longer ask him anything.

I have tried Friends reunited and facebook but I think Peter and Jacqueline might be of an age where they woulnd't bother with those sitess and I have no idea if they married and had children.
I have absolutely nothing to go on. and our surname is dead common!!

thanks for your help guys!

If you go back a bit with your family there is a chance someone else is doing their family tree. Have you looked in peoples' trees for common ancestors a bit further back?
