hi.. can anyone help me please.. i'm new to all this and have already come to a massive brick wall. i am searching for my grandads dad, edward johnson. this may be a long shot as i dont have a lot of info.
i think edward may have died in 1957 ish. dont know his birth year, i am pretty sure his wife was called margaret and think she may have been from dumfries. edward lived in the ryton area, gateshead.
edward had 4 sons, robert, william, malcolme and edward.
william bendall johnson (1927-1978) is my grandad. he married georgina wilkinson (1927-1992) in 1949. they went on to have 6 children, ritson, stuart, keith, raymond, marie and june.
keith (my father) was born in 1957.
all of the above lived in ryton, gateshead/durham. apart from margaret.
any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you
rachel xx
