Have you seen this? just google the name 'bernard dransfield'

http://www.thisisannouncements.co.uk/5770774?s_source=clno_tihu

it appears to be sympathy offered to Joan on the death of Bernard ... 2010 ... ?

numerous sympathy messages and messages from family


sad news if so, you will be able to look at these and see whether they fit and talk to Joan about it if so


edit ... I think they confused me ... the Joan in that case seems to be the widow of the deceased Bernard ... you can have a look ...

Hi, I am looking for Bernard Dransfield on behalf of his sister Joan. He was born in Rochdale in 1937 and married Beryl in 1960. He was a plant contractor in Rochdale. Joan last saw him at her mother's funeral. I have been doing some family history research for her and it has proved interesting.
