Find Living Relatives

Thanks for all the help etc, I have tried searching Genes trees, not much help. The McMurty family ring a bell.

They had three children in the 1960s, registered in Don Valley, and one in 1980 in Doncaster.

The 1980 child was with them up to 2007.
They were living in Doncaster up to 2014-16.
There's no mention of the property on Zoopla, so her husband may still be there.

That couple had five children in the 1940s, births registered in Durham SW.
If you think that might be the right family, you can find their names on FreeBMD.

The child born in 1948 was probably living in Doncaster with family members up to at least 2019.
The property appears not to have been sold since then, so they may still be there.

Put the names in ‘search all member trees’.
IF anyone has a tree on here, send a contact message
Presumably, you know how old the deceased ones were when they died?

I am trying to find any information on the Manson Family, they lived in Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland. Rose Manson died 1953, her parents were Hugh, he died 1953, Mary, Rose’s Mum died 1958, Rose had siblings, Hugh, Thomas and Elizabeth, they have passed away as well. Their is Grandchildren and Great Grand Children, I don’t have names or dates. It would be so good if I could find any living people.
