im trying to locate my aunties and uncle from carsholton, surrey.

the details are as follows:

the oldest is heather ann thomas (robinson) born 1948 i think.
then it is shirley ann thomas (peterson) born 1952 i think.
i know shirley use to work for the daily telegraph back in the early 80's and was mairried to a terry peterson, they had a love for horses and also had a daughter called emma who also done horse riding, i went with them after i had chicken pox when i was young. :-D
then its my dad robin ian thomas born 1955 which i have contact with now after i found him around 15 years ago, i tend to do a lot of looking for family members, lol.
and then there is keith allen thomas bon 1962, i dont know too much on keith as i never really met him that much when i was younger but im trying now. if there is any info at all please can you contact me through here on pvt messaging.
i will reply to every message sent and follow up any info given,

thanks for reading

Gavin, this is a public site and the posts in it can be read across the internet by anyone; therefore, from a security point of view, I would remove the email address if I were you.

Good luck with the search.

Hi Gavin, I have found Shirley and her husband on the electoral roll several years ago ... I only see her husband there now but I will send you his contact information privately, hopefully he will be able to tell you about Shirley

don't forget to put them all in your family tree here at genesreunited so if someone in their family searches for them or you, they will find you and be able to contact you

( keep your email address up to date at this site so you receive notices of messages )

But you are not allowed unless you get their permission

it does not bother me, but others on here say it is the GR rules

that's true flowerpot2, that's true, and since I've given Gavin some info now I should probably take that back because I agree that it shouln't be done without permission :-)

I think for some reason I was thinking they were oooold but that's not the case !

"it does not bother me, but others on here say it is the GR rules" - it may bother them ;-) and it is courtesy to ask first :)
