Find Living Relatives

it helps for us to know things like what you have already done to look for the people ...


someone here has Valerie Crouch in their tree (right place, one year out on the birth)

someone has Thomas McKeown 1945 Birmingham (the birth that doesn't exist)


Sue have you searched trees here and does your person know the people with those names in their trees, or have you tried to contact them?

for example

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/tree/results/crouch/valerie?memberkey=0&yearofbirth=1948&yearofbirthrange=1

and both of the possible sisters born in Birkenhead, Bridget and Moira, are in trees here

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/tree/results/mckeown?memberkey=0&yearofbirth=1936&yearofbirthrange=2&birthplace=birkenhead

one tree possibly belonging to the sister herself

fat fingers Detective? :-)

the 1945 Birkenhead birth is at freebmd ... it's the mother's surname I'm having trouble with because it seems not to be a name ... Lyan (that is what the index image does say)

I wonder, Ryan

there was a McKeown-Ryan marriage in Birkenhead and two other births there, in 1935 and 1938

Sue if the Birkenhead birth is your Thomas, I wonder whether these are Thomas's sisters and whether his son has had contact with them or their families

however if the 1941 birth is your Thomas, those births are not connected

1941 would have made him a great deal older than Valerie, who married at quite a young age

PM from Sue

She is asking on behalf of Thomas and Valeries son.

Have advised to post on the thread, also to purchase their MC as details may help track other McKeown family.

One thing Sue forgot to say, or I to ask, was when (approx) Thomas and Valerie ceased to be partners. This is so we can look for additional possible marriages for him.

Could you have got the year of birth wrong? There is a Birmingham 1941 birth for a person of the same name.

Start with what you know for a fact and work from there.

In case it helps, his marriage was to Valerie P Crouch.

There is a Thomas J McKeown, birth reg 1Q 1945 in Birkenhead. (Source - Ancestry).
Its not showing on Freebmd.

Could we ask why you wish to contact him please? Is he 'presumed' relative? Would he know about you?

Sue posted a little more on General before being advised to post on FLR .

Hi Sue, welcome to the boards.

There is no birth in B'ham 1945 for someone of this name.
Do you know his mother's maiden name?
