Hi Reggie, i have contacted Shelagh to see if she is connected or not, so thanks for all your help x

The surname for Shelagh is not Gheraty

If you go to Search Trees and put in Stanley Bridgwater, 1900, there is a GR member, Shelagh (rather than Sheila).

Is this her?

Her Stanley is born in Chirbury (Shropshire)??

What Reggie has given you has come from Ancestry

The reason the trees were mentioned was if this lady was on this site she would probably have this person in her tree,if you were both researching him? If it was another ancestor you shared put those details in and her name may come up...That way you could then try and contact her

There is no-one named Sheila who has the man in a GR tree

To use search trees - just click on the button in the dark green bar and put in the details of the man you are researching

Lynski, we spoke about 7 years ago via e-mail and found out we were researching the same family, but we lost touch and I don't have her e-mail address - that's why I've put this thread up incase she still uses this site and sees it - how do i use the search tree "find out more" button?

Have you sent her a message recently and not received a reply?

You could try contacting her again using the Search Trees "find out more" button?

Hi not sure if this is the right board, but I'm looking for the above lady who has details on Stanley Bridgwater born in Liverpool in 1900.

We had contact back in 2004 (yes.... a long time ago) but maybe she is still using GR.

If you are Sheila, then please can you send me a message with your e-mail address and i will respond back.

Thank you Elaine
