My 4x great Grandparents. I have 3 possible suspects for the father but I'm totally clueless as to find out which one it is! lol. Must knuckle down to it in the New Year Jeanette x

M y great, great grandmother, Mary Rattray, who wasn`t born but married, had children , died at age 34 leaving 5 children. Can`t find her birth anywhere. The funny thing is Mary is my middle name but after my grandmother on my maternal side. Rosalyn

Any of my Irish ancestors would be great.

My great grandad, who had a French name but bought an Englishman's name and served in the Australian navy using this other man's name!! But they named their three names with the French surname and they were all buried with the French name!! The mystery around this is fascinating. Have a good one Julie

Mine would e the birth or baptism of either (or both) Sainthill Lindsey/ Elizabeth Frances Hooper, who married in 1791 at St Geo. in the East. Just cannot find them or their parents before then. O and of course the Irish fullstop, - the marriage between John Kearns and Frances ?, probably in Kilkenny @ 1790's, but................ How very greedy that is! Maybe - I should offer more 1837 look-ups as a penance. Rosi

I'll do the same, Gwen. x

My two maternal great-grandfathers: 1. Richard Mellon, no birth certificate, no father on census, don't know where he was born, rumoured to be German. 2. Albert Goodge, no one in the family knows anything about him, could come from anywhere, waiting for 1911 census to find him. also desperate to find a birth for Mary Kate Evans, c1864, Luton. Lucia :-)

oh im not sure who i'd want ummmmmmmmm all of them that ive not yet found lol

I have two elusives that I would love to have recieved;; 1) hubbys father Jacques Deplus died 1945 in war got his D/C says he lived Paris France William Johnson b. 1855;; who's father was James 1831? I am going to get his cert and try to find him trouble to many Johnsons 4 in the year William was born;;; Arghhhhhhhhhhhhh Babs

my maternal Gran - to ask her -WHY????????

My great grandfather Anthony Harrison, what year did you die? and did you die before my dad was born as he cant remember ever meeting you. Anthony's son Trevethian Harrison we know you married but did you have any children? I could go on forever, be glad you dont have the surname Harrison it makes you want to screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeem! Yvonne

Several but musn't be greedy. Used to be my g uncle Anthony Robinson but I've filled in several gaps in his life thanks to the discovery of a distant living relative. Really would like to know more about my paternal grandfather Sidney Robinson (above Anthony's brother) who died in 1933 when my Dad was just 2. We know virtually nothing about him and I know my Dad would love to be able to fill in the missing pieces. My Dad didn't even know that he had aunts and uncles, or the names of his grandparents until I found them out for him. The other one puzzling me most is another Anthony Robinson born c1742 - need to take a look at some parish records soon I think. Daisy

My grandmother, Clara Jane Hall, born 1882 in Richmond, Surrey, but nowhere to be found in 1891 or 1901 (nor her parents)

my grandmother have her marriage cert and death cert but cant find out were she was born,nearly everyone on genes has looked for her but nothing,were are you ada mary bassindale born 1869 have give up now,joyce

Joyce, How old was she when she married ? Is it possible it was a second marriage and Bassindale is her first husbands name ? Paul

I don't know about a person, but I would love someone to provide me with evidence of my great grandmother Sarah Sowle's ( b 1825)marriage to Edmund Sanders. IF her son, my granddad was a bastard, does that make me one too? len

I'd like to find the man who got my grandmother Elsie preggers in 1915 when she was only 17...

I would like to find my great x 3 Grandad, George Tate. I have so much information about him and his family. He died on December 20th (my sons birthday) in 1844. Have found his grave and know which pub he ran, but because he died between 1841 and 1851 don't know where he was born so can get no further back. Just waiting for that stroke of luck that I hope will come sometime. Would also like to find one set of great grandparents. My grandad was illegitimate, so that's another dead end for me. Maggy
