Why did you say you can't find anything about William other than his birth?

You have his son Gerard in your GR tree!!

thanks everyone for your replies .
We do know that it is not William Gregson Darbyshire as we have had a reply from one of the family in that tree.
Other than that we are no further in finding out what has happened to William after 1911 census .
Will keep looking

He does not have a son Gerard .
Thanks

Jacqueline Report 1 Jun 2015 13:39

Well, you have Gerard in YOUR tree..

How does that come about? Have you researched him properly?

He is on the 1911 posted above..................with his parents and brother

You said in your first post that Susannah's father was Solomon............he wasn't.

Solomon was her brother

Susannah's son was Solomon's nephew.
