Find Ancestors

If anyone requires help in finding a living relative in USA, Canada, Australia or NZ please give me as much details as you have, name, age, last place you heard from them and when, husband/wifes name. Would be happy to help katrina Australia

Hi Katrina You are going to wish you never asked, but thanks for the offer, here is my dilemma In 1947 my grandmother went to visit a relative in Pennsylvania USA, a half sister or step sister. All we know is that her son's came over to England too and on a photo we have of one of them his name is on the back. Eddie Sylmond/Sylmand, this is what it looks like and by looking at how he was dressed and his age on it I reckon he was probably born in the mid 1930's. As it is such an unusual name I was hoping that you could find something somewhere with that surname. My grandmother was born in Swansea, Wales but her father was Belgium so I don't know if this would help in any way. If you think it is impossible I totally understand but I thought I would give it a go anyway, you never know do you. I am just sorry it is a bit vague Many Thanks Sheila

Hi Hope this information helps Found in the USA Trudie M. Sylmond aged around 70 years living at 7326 Gayglen Drive Dallas Texas 75217-6213 USA Phone number 214-391-0045 Others living at the address Tonya, Landon and Marie Sylmond No Sylmonds in Canada Will check elsewhere Regards katrina

Hi Katrina What a star you are, I really haven't had any luck at all with this surname and I was clutching at straws when I added a reply to your request. You have also jolted a spark in my memory, my family have always thought they lived in Pennsylvania, when you have said Texas I remember my mother telling me that my Gran had a marriage proposal from a Ranch owner when she was over there. My mother was annoyed that she didn't accept it, she would have had a wonderful life there apparently. I cannot tell you how excited I am about this info you have sent me, Thankyou so much Many Many Thanks Sheila

We are having trouble finding out the parents of my husbands grandfather. He was born in York, Ontario, Toronto in 1912. He was born 10th June 1912. Stephen Benjamin Hopkins. We have his little credit card sized birth cert but we would love to find out who his parents were. Will we have to wait for the 1912 census? thanks. I know he is not living but just wonder if you knew if we can find out.

Hi Dorsetbaby, have the 1911 Canadian Census with several Hopkins from York. If you knew if Stephen had any older siblings that could pinpoint the parents. Regards Katrina

Hi Katrina Thank you for your offer. I don't know if you will be able to help me. I have a copy of the 1930 census for USA. It is my great Aunt's son David Nelson age 38. His wife Magdaline age 34. Son John age 4yrs. Son Walter age 2 yrs and Son Robert age 1yr. They are living in 3rd District, New York. David Nelson is listed as an Inspector for the Board of Health. I am desperately trying to find this family as I have letters that could be passed on to them. The children could still be alive. David Nelson was born in Pennsylvania, the others all born in New York. David's mother Mary (my great aunt) was living at that time in Manhatton. If you have the 1930 census you could look at the entry as there is a township where David lived but I can't make it out I am not sure whether this is the information you need but I am hoping that maybe you can help. Thank you Marlene

He is researching the Betts tree.He has entered his tree information on rootsweb & has some of mine but I cant find the connection.

Hi Katrina I do not know if you will beable to help me? I have tried before and had some wonderful help from lots of people but not got past this point. I have been trying to tace the family of Miss Bertha Game who married Mr William Campbell on August 20th 1915, their address at this time was 15 Sunnyside Avenue, Westmount, Montreal. I know nothing about William, but have all the history on Bertha up to this date. Her Parents were John Game & Julia Game, maiden name Prosser. Bertha was born in England, and was sent to Canada as Part of Ms Birts Britich Homes Party in 1907. Bertha's date was recorded as March 2nd 1893 by Liverpool Sheltering Home on 26th September 1906. Her niece is still alive and in her mid 70s and would love to find any cousins? Thank you for your time, Janice x
