Find Living Relatives

Yes, all the above info. fits beautifully. Thank you very much. I shall try to add it to the family tree. Rose, you found a link to a Nick Rich that really interests me as his great-grandfather is also my Great-uncle. However, I don't seem to be able to contact him as those links are for a site that only permits email if one joins and even then I am not too certain about that. However, I am in contact with another realtive who might know him. It is my Grandfather he is asking about.
I must now absorb all this info. Regards Maureen

Maureen , I've reported the new thread to avoid confusion. Don't worry about it - the T&C can be confusing for novice posters.

Details Copied over

I am looking for any descendants of Rebecca Mathews nee Bloomberg 1860, sons Samuel b.1882; Percy b.1886, Abram b.1891; Nathan m. Fanny Posner 1895, sons Henry Percy 1896, Stoke Newington; Abraham(Alfred) m. Catherine Zwart 1892 son Harry Percy 1892 Burton on Trent, daughter Violet Stella 1905 Hackney

Thank you everyone working on my behalf. I have taken on board the criticisms and am sorry. I am trying to trace anyone living now since nothing was handed down to me, neither uncles had children and I am an only child! To read that a likely relative died in 1978 is quite upsetting. If I say, will try harder, I hope I am forgiven.

No I cannot copy and paste anything; very much a basic user of the compk that uter. I do not have any further details of the siblings except what I put down. I understand if this is an impossible task and thank you for trying.
Regards Maureen

No Maureen, it isn't a hopeless case. Its just that we didn't want to go chasing down relatives you are already in contact with.

Rambling Rose has been working tremendously hard on your behalf and has discovered at least one name change. Use the Search All Member tree function to see if anyone else shares the same person. If so, send them a message to find out more.

Although we could possibly find real-time addresses for some of the descendents, only a small percentage of the population are interested in family history, certainly not when the mutual relative was born 100- 150 years ago.

Do try to build your family tree on this site and make sure you register your most up to date email address with Genes. As long as you don't cancel (as opposed to lapse) your membership any one with a mutual interest can contact you via the messaging system.

Taking a stab at this ( before my train... do genealogists ever give up I wonder ;-) )

This death for a Henry Percy Lawrence as per the changed name on army records
( ie formerly Bloomberg) seems possible, the birthday is right as per the school admission but the year is wrong by one, which is not unusual.

maureen I suppose no one replied to your request for descendants at Rootschat so you decided to try here

I would suggest that you add a post at Rootschat about the information that has been found here, so that no one else wastes time finding things that are not lost

maybe Brigid should have explained this principle to you, and explained, in case it wasn't obvious, that asking total strangers to find information for you about a list of names with no place names or relationships or any indication of what you already know about them is more than a little unhelpful
