Title: May Crook (nee Pritchard) b1903
Post by: jackip on Saturday 02 May 09 18:51 BST (UK)
I am putting a fresh post on because I have made some discoveries re the Aunt May I have been looking for. I now know I had the birth year wrong and in addition I now have her married name CROOK. So I am hoping that I might find someone who has information about her descendents. She was living on the Isle of Man in 1983. Other details:

Birth date: 15th April 1903

Birthplace: Liverpool

Parents: Achason Pritchard and Laura Pritchard (nee Priest)

Siblings: Clifford (b1905) and Harold (b1907).

Many thanks.

Hi,

I think jackip is looking for later information on may pritchard b.1903

she knows her married name was crook - but hasn't found the marriage yet

She was living on Isle of man in 1983 - so I think jackip is looking for marriage - any children - or death reg -she/he already has parents and siblings information - but has put out a separate post for further information on brother Harold

Hi Suz

You are quite right - after I had posted my last reply, I realised she was going forwards not backwards

You know what they say - fools rush in!!
