Hi Diane

I'm new to GenesReunited and just found your message regarding Joseph Frederick Pearson Nicholson. I'm searching for family who are related to an Eric Pearson Nicholson possibly born in Carlisle, Cumberland circa 1865/1866. He was a political secretary and died in Surrey in 1936. I'm just wondering if you might have come across this name whilst you were researching Joseph?

Thanks Diane.

Hello,

I am looking for anyone who is connected in anyway to the Nicholson family from Greystoke, Penrith Cumberland. I would love to be able to find someone who has photographs to share because I do not have any photographs of my own, not even a photograph of my father who was a Nicholson. My father's father was Joseph Frederick Pearson Nicholson and his father was Joseph Nicholson. Joseph Frederick Pearson Nicholson's mother was Dorothy (nee) Scott. His sister was a Dora Elizabeth Nicholson.
My main interest is for photographs of my family as I do not have any of the Nicholson side.
I would be grateful for any information at all, you can find my details under Diane Nicholson.
Many thanks for your time.

Diane :-)
