Have you search all of the BMD indexes between 1908 an 1914 for every instances of their surname? could help you decrease the time frame by a bit. Ignore me I just re-read your original post i.e no BMD's sorry :-( |

Heather, No that doesnt help. First child born 1930. He came over as a child. His parents didnt have any more kids after they came here either. Pat |

I need some new ideas! I know that my grandfather came to England from South America sometime between 1908 and 1914. He was a gypsy so wont be on an Electoral Role. As far as I know, there were not any BMD's for the family in that period. How can I limit my search years when looking for him on a passenger list coming over here? I know he came in at Liverpool. I have contacted the PRO at Kew and there are approx 250 possible ships in that time frame. Pat |
