Find Living Relatives

As you've added a postem there you already know how to find your way round on the Freebmd site, which will give you the birth details for your mum , her sister and grandmother ( if that is indeed the right one) and then you can order certs easily online from the GRO :-)

Nothing I wrote was anything other than POLITE

Stephanie, Reggie's advice is straightforward not impolite I don't think.

For anyone of us starting or continuing our tree there are certain steps that have to be taken, one of which is that you start with what you DO know, which in this case is your mum's birth and buy that cert to be sure of her mothers name. No one helping can know what you have found already, which is why people ask 'Where have you looked, what have you done so far? " etc, because it would be pointless for people to search only to get the reply "yes I know all that already" :-)

Your mother did not have a middle name registered, nor did your aunt, but Winifred may have, checking your mum's birth cert may confirm that. and so make Winifred easier to trace.

ive tryed looking to see if christopher Connolly got married but dont show any research on free bmd .

ive found grandad birth he was from liverpool 1932,he married my nan 1961 birmingham.i cant find nan birth ?

I think you 'found' him because I and others put that information in your thread right here on the first page ... I posted the information about his death in 1999 that shows he was born in 1932 and I told you he was born in Liverpool ... you must have read it after all .............

you do not know he was your grandad, your mum's father, unless he is on her birth certificate

he was your nan's husband, but she married after your mum was born

you have 'found' your nan's birth before ......... because, as has been said here, you added a postem to it at freebmd, and you also added notes to it at Ancestry


if you do not keep a record of the things you find .......... and things other people find for you .......... you are just going to keep coming back and asking people to find them for you all over again ?

and then deleting the threads ?

ive tryed looking for my nan birth cant seem find it on free bmd only found my grandad birth and death, all so found marriage .

You don't actually know who your mother's father was.............so you can't have found his records.

You must buy a copy of the cert of Winifred's marriage in 1961, to find out how old she was, and if she knew HER father.

There is no point in wasting time trying to look for anything until you get that copy..................

If you have not found your grandmothers birth....why have you added a postem to one born 1934? also a comment on the mistranscribed entry on Ancestry...saying she is your nan

my mum did as she told me he died 1999?

my mum did as she told me he died 1999?

Who died in 1999?

Thank-you

Stephanie, the only way anyone can help you is for you to buy some certificates as advised , which will confirm actual names and ages.

You can be pretty certain that the Winifred R Summerhill born 1934 is your grandmother, sisters Marjorie, Brenda and brother Bert ( died ), so given that this is most 'likely' their parents marriage

Marriages Dec 1930 (>99%)

Phillips Lily Summerhill Birmingham N. 6d 1086

Summerhill Bert Phillips Birmingham N. 6d 1086

aaaiiiieeeee

Winifred Summerill (no middle initial) married Christopher M Connolly and he died in 1999 as I posted on the previous page

Name: Christoper Myles Connolly
Birth Date: 26 Sep 1932
Date of Registration: Dec 1999
Age at Death: 67 >>> born 1932 in Liverpool
Registration District: Tower Hamlets
Inferred County: London
Register Number: B31
District and Subdistrict: 2461B
Entry number: 275

THAT death certificate could tell you whether Winifred was living with him when he died or otherwise maybe where their child was living !!!!!!

they seem to have had one child after the marriage

as . I . said .... he may or may not be the father of your mum ..... if your mum said he was that is possible but he could also have been her stepfather ....

probably only DNA tests of some close relation would tell

i was 13 years old when my grandad died my mum n her sister was married ?

babyface do you read anything that anyone puts here ?

what is it that you want to find out ????????????????????

if you know how old you were when your granddad CHRISTOPHER CONNOLLY ?? died

then why do you not know anything about WINIFRED SUMMERILL ??

it does not matter how old you were or who was married

if you want to know something about someone,

say what it is

and take the advice people give you about how to find out

I was just going to let babyface know that several people have this person

Bertie Summerill 1898 Birmingham West Midlands England

in their family trees at this site






but she is one of them .......................

so did babyface already know this? everything that people are spending their time finding for her here ( like the 1930 Bert Summerhill and Lily Phillips marriage )?

or maybe she added that name to her tree today after Rambling Rose put the marriage here and babyface quickly looked up Bert's birth ......... hm

and either she already knows all the other people who have him in their trees

or she has not bothered to try to contact them if she knew about Bert already

( or they might not know anything about Bert's daughter Winifred of course )
