We don't know what information you have Lynn - it helps us to help you to post what we find as we go along.
What information do you have 1881 onwards - it also helps us!

John Williams born wales...moved to Liverpool/Sheffield(1891 census) then preston sussex street where my grandad was born George Williams 1910.
John was married to Mary naylor in 1890 Liverpool.

I'm looking for links to his father/grandfather etc.

He is difficult to pinpoint with just the name....there are quite a few of them !!
Any assistance would be most welcome...whilst I wait in hope of responses to my e-mails from possible inked trees....REGARDS LYNN
