I'm trying to find any relatives of Sam and Ada Theaker. My mum Dulcie was the youngest of their 6 children. Edna, Charlotte,Bernard,Gladys,Ernest.

They lived at 36 fifth Avenue in Goole.

my mum is 85 and would love to trace any relatives as she was given away and moved to Leeds age 2.

Please help. :-)

posibly one daughter to the Robinson marriage will PM the ref as its 1949

Edit found a marriage too for the daughter (possibly!) and a current address which have added to the PM

We are not aware of any children after my mum, but as she didn't have any contact with her family it is possible. I feel really excited that we may find someone :-)

Look for names on this free site

http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl

You get best results with limited information, - just name , middle INITIAL and surname.
You can select whether to search births, marriages or deaths.

It is not complete yet, but is a good guide up to about 1950s.

Have you checked the brothers and sisters names in the SEARCH TREES section on this GR site?
Be a bit flexible with years / locations, but there would seem to be people researching at least some of these.
You can click on the researcher's name to make contact. I would delete the automated reply about viewing their tree and compose your own message.

Good luck.

Gwyn

look in Search Trees under the Search heading above a Paul has Ernest listed .

You can send him a message asking if its the same family. Delete out the standard words asking to have access to his tree and give him what you know of mums family .

thank you, I have sent Paul a message. I sent 20 messages yesterday and had 2 replies, both drew a blank.

PM sent with addresses.
