Many thanks Shirley. It looks like I have the wrong person. This search started with a death certificate for a James Reilly, died 1925 Rotherham, at 6 Wood St, Thrybergh. Informant, a M Reilly, son, of same address. I've been searching for a M Reilly, and only came up with a Matthew. Said James Reilly of this address was informant on my fathers baby brothers death in 1913, of 3 Abell St, Thrybergh. James was stated as "cousin in attendance ". My fathers brother was John Manning/Mannion.
Thank you again for your reply. Back to the drawing board for me!

Many thanks Chris Ho :)
That info is very interesting, perhaps it will give me some new leads.

Christine. :-)

Wow, thank you very much Nyx, you've helped me a great deal.
Perhaps with this info, I can make some headway. It's been bothering me as to why my Grandmother or Grandfather weren't the Informants on my uncles death certificate. I have a niggling feeling that my Grandfather wasn't on the scene then?

Christine. :-)

Malyon thanks also for your help, but it's the wrong person, sorry.

Christine.
