Hi, I'm trying to find anything from 1901 onwards regarding the whereabouts of my mothers side of the family.
Robert Owen Thomas ( my mums father ) was born in 1902 in Earlestown warrington shire on August 13 to Jane crooks ( adopted to pugh) and Owen Thomas ( blacksmith). There was an older daughter - Gertrude May - who was born in 1900 in the same region. Owen and Jane were married in the Brunswick weslyan chapel in Earlstown in 1899.

I have a few photos of other family members, however we have no idea how they fit in to the puzzle. I have a photo with three kids - Elaine, Michael and Margaret who are Gwyns children, and I also have a photo of Freddie and David, which states on the back that freddie is a brother of robert owen thomas.

If this rings any bells with anyone I'd greatly appreciate you dropping me a line. My grandfather emigrated out to Australia in 1929 and we have lost all contact with family, infact up until 3 years ago we didn't even know my grandfathers parents names.
