I am searching for any members of my family, No one seems to know if you are out there. My Great grandfather had 3 shops in the Pavement in the early 1900. He had 2 daughters, Lillian and Edith, Edith being my grand mother. If you are related to me I would love to hear from you. My only surviving relative is my Gt Aunt Lillian's Son, sadly he does not know any of his relative. He now is in his mid to late 70s. If you are able to contact me I would love to know you. email me on [Personal details removed by Moderator]
Hello Diedre and welcome to the board,
The best way for you to give your rellie access to his family tree is to start with yourself and work backward with our help to get you there.
But we need to know all you know so far in order to see if ther are any trees that are accessable on line to help find living family members for you to contact.
We are neot allowed to name living people here Data protection but we can offer guidance to help you find living family members and also research your family tree.

Most library's provide access to Ancestry library edition within the library.
If you would like a copy of the census returns and most importantly, the military record and war badge card, then take a USB memory stick to the library and copy the images over.
Alternatively, if you don't have a sub, take out the 14 day free trial. You will need to provide credit/debit card info but so long as you cancel within the 14 days they will not make any charges. (most of us have tried the free trial and it does work)
