Hi Jacqueline that is my father he is passed now I have not put a clear request, I was looking more for my cousins who might hold some information I am seeking, my father did have a younger sister Edna but I do not know if she is still with us as she would be about 92 now

Have you tried 'search trees' (in dark green bar above) to see if anyone has them in their tree?

Jacqueline
Edna is my aunt but may have passed on now we do not know if she has any children due to the secret service type attitude of the family my cousins outside the UK do not have any details as they rely on me for info.

brummiejan yes Ive tried that but the other trees have there info from my guess work
the reson I am trying to find decendants as there are cousins out there that I have never met as I am looking to see who holds her death certificate which I am unable to find via other means
Many thanks David

Your maths is a bit 'iffy' - lol! Born 1930 makes her 81 now, if alive

What does the 'M' represent in Edna's name?

The info you seek, presumably, is about Caroline's death, which was looked for in depth on your other thread

You are being somewhat less than forthcoming on here, David.

On your other thread, you refer to Caroline's death having been registered by her son in law, Frederick White. To whom was Frederick married?

You do not mention any other children of the Wilson/Heathcote marriage, so the assumption must be that Frederick married Edna.

Hi Sorry about the confusion and the sums you are right its my age dementia is setting in now,as now 70
fredererick was married to the other daughter phyllis I do not know who Edna was married to or where she now lives she used to live in manchester
all my cousins live abroad except for two whom I have never met, the ones abroad are in the dark as well and look to me to find out things, the family was very disfunctional and never realy communicated with each other and if you did ask a question you were told to mind your own business and not to ask such questions. so hence I am trying to draw some relatives out from the dark to answer if they can about my grandmother whom I only met twice
due to geography
I have given up on the other site as trying to find this info is worse that trying to find my Irish ancesters birth details
regards David
