After 2 years + of searching,Iwith a great deal of help from fellow member Louise,I've finally got much fuller details of my gr/father on mother's side,even including a photo!!!
It had been a very difficult search,as he "got a domestic servant into trouble"(the resulting child was my mother),and " did a runner" before the birth,which added greatly to the mystery.
Now I've "got"him,bit of a ladies'man by all accounts,and his father was a convicted burglar with a long track record.
