You can not hide living relatives in a search...they are only hidden when you share your tree

If you have yourself in your tree on here I would be able to find it if I knew where and when you were born

I do not have myself in my tree nor my parents as we are living so instead of our names I have 'Living Person' ...but most people do not do that

If you searched for anyone in your tree you will not be able to find them with you as the tree owner....but anyone else will be able to see them

Also I was suggesting you searched for these brothers children to find any connections, not the Living people themselves

Thank you for your interest, yes I do have a lot of names but I hope any sensible researcher like myself hides living relatives on any tree they publish outside of their family. I put this item up in the chance that there may be a present day relation other than those I am already in touch with know who is also a member of this site.

Have you traced the marriages for their children to find any names of possible living decendants?

Why would they be absent from any trees?

It is unlikely that any decendants will see this post in the near future so it would be best if you tried to track them down yourself

Here is one marriage found on freebmd

Thank you, I have all this information - I am looking for family recently deceased or living of these brothers of my Grandfather (they should be absent from any trees).
