Yvonne - use the search all trees facility - top right under Search - and look for names that you already have in your tree. Then you can contact the tree owners to share information.

I am trying to trace the death of Henry Cowling who seems to disappear from official records after 1881. Henry was baptised at Brentor, Devon, on 9 Jan 1851. In 1872 he married Mary Ann Doidge and in 1881 he is shown as a railway packer living with her and 5 children in West Blackdown, Mary Tavy.
