Title: Grosert
Post by: goose on Thursday 19 June 08 12:31 BST (UK)

I have just been looking up the marriage of my great uncle John (Jack) Richard de Frates, trying to find out the surname of his wife (Meg as she was known), I can only find that he married someone with the name of GROSERT in September 1917 in York but nothing else comes to light and I am not sure if this is correct or not.

Can anyone help please?
Carol

I could kiss you   :-* that is great, now I can find out more about her family. Uncle Jack and Aunty Meg didn't have any children but spoilt their brothers children (my dad being one of them).  Yes please, could I have the census details  :-* :-*

Thanks again
Carol
