Find Ancestors

I am looking for details re my grandmother. She was born in Dublin. Her name was Elizabeth chivers. She came over to the Wigan area and married a widower named John whittle. This was in the mid to late 1800's he had children from his previous marriage to Alice. They had 2more children namely Elizabeth and Joseph. Joseph was born in 1900 he was my father. I am lead to believe that my father had a cousin and an uncle in Dublin. One a policeman the other a priest. Don't know which way round. But they lived in Dublin. I think that the family could have been farmers. I m desperate to meet my long lost family. Please please can anyone help. Regards Joan <3

Maureen - please note the advice I posted for Jean.

(Trouble is, the people who are finding this thread probably have just looked at first page and not here on page 4 where we're adding this!)

OOhh - such a shame - I thought for a moment that my dear friend Jess was back ! :-(
