Find Living Relatives

Can anyone help please?
I am trying to locate a cousin of mine, Christopher Charles Dew and his wife, Lynne.
The last location I know of is somewhere in Cheshire.
I would be very pleased to hear from anyone who can offer information or advice on how to proceed..

Hi.

You could try this site:

http://www.searchelectoralroll.co.uk/Electoral_Roll_Search.asp

If you check for both names in Warrington, they show at same address. No indication as to when tho.

Hi Jan
Many thanks for the site details, I shall get onto it straight away.

unfortunately 192.com shows that address to be current only to 2008

google

"christopher c dew" 192.com

to see the most detailed info available from 192.com

if you then use the search box at the top of the page that takes you too, you will see that Lynne is listed in the same place only to 2008 as well

it would not hurt to send a letter, of course

even if they are not there, you could ask the current occupant whether they could forward or have any info

I did look on 192.com, but couldn't see them. Silly me, must be getting old!

I just missed an entire family in the 1891 census and [someone who objects to being named] missed the glaringly obvious on freebmd, so I think there is something in the water this week!

Hi brummiejan and JoonieCloonie
Many thanks for the info re Chris Dew and how to use192.com. Now I have another way of finding the rather scattered family members. This has proved to be very helpful. I have written to the address I have, (will post it in the morning) as suggested, and now await I hope for a reply. Once again many thanks for your help.

Good luck! Let us know how you get on.

haha, stick around, there are many tricks to learn ... and I have not learned them all yet :-)

The property was last sold on 9 Oct 2015 but the current owners may still have forwarding address.

If you haven't already sent the letter, put your own address on the rear of the envelope.

If the letter gets returned, send another one 'to the occupants' and ask if they have the name of the vendors solicitors. Failing that, ask if they would give you their own solicitor's name. If you're dedicated, you might be able to have a letter forwarded up (or down) the chain.

Was he born in 1948? This is what I found, sad to say it's a death.

Name: Mr Christopher Charles Dew
Gender: Male
Age: 63
Birth Date: 1948
Death Date: 22 Dec 2011
Residence Place at Death: Warrington, England
Postal Code District: WA3

If correct, that is a shame. Although I'd checked the Probate calendar neither had their Estates listed. In the circumstances, his probably passed in its entirety to his widow.

Good afternoon everyone who replied (above).
I know this is a rather late response to your messages but I have been without access to my computer/e-mails etc. due to the BT router failing (just out of contact). They took almost a week to decide that the fault was with their equipment and they at last sent a replacement router. Sent by "snail mail" it arrived to-day so now I am busy trying to catch up. I had an idea that Christopher Dew had died and now this has been confirmed so many, many thanks. As and when (if) I do manage to locate his wife I will post a message on the board by way of expressing my thanks.
Best wishes to you all

we always appreciate it when people come back to let us know their progress

your router experience sounds just like mine a few years ago ... all that time just to admit that something in their system happened that 'fried' my modem when they knew full well that mine was not the only one, refusing to let me have it picked up for delivery, sending it snail mail that did not even get delivered and I had to go fetch it ... !!

good luck with your search now.
