Title: Mary Fone (nee Heywood) and Donald Taylor Manchester
Post by: jen1984 on Sunday 21 June 09 20:49 BST (UK)

I am trying to find out whether my Grandmother's sister Mary Fone (nee Heywood) (my great Aunt) and their half brother Donald Taylor (my great Uncle) (born in Bury) are still alive.

We know that Mary was living in Wythenshawe in the 1990's and we think Donald was also living in the vicinity.

Mary Fone was born on 15th August 1925 and married Derek Fone.  They had two children Denise and Stephen.

Donald was born on 9th June 1921.  He married Marion Taylor (nee Adams) and had Donald Jr, Peter, David and Marilyn.  They did have more children but I am unsure of their names.

Does any one have any information on either Mary or Donald?  I would love to find out what happened to them.

I'm 99% sure that the dates are correct but I may be wrong.

Regards

Jenna

I have not been able to find either of their deaths on BMD going by the birth dates you gave.  Looks as if they are still
living so should not be named on here.

Hi Jenna,

I am Donald Taylor's grandson. I realise this is a very old post, I would love to give you any information about my grandfather I can. If you read this, reply on here or contact me via email.

Thanks

Hi Andrew

Welcome to Rootschat.

Jenna hasn't been online for a few years but if her email is still the same, hopefully she will get a message saying that there is a reply to her post.

Fingers crossed :)

Hi Andrew!

I'm so sorry for delay. Only recently come across email. I stopped doing my family tree a while ago as I came up on some dead ends.

It's great to hear from you :) I spoke to my mum about your message last night and she told me about another few of your grandfather's children. Which of the children is your parent?

I hope you don't mind me asking but is your grandfather still alive?

Also do you have any information on Mary? Is she still alive?

I guess we're half cousins then!

Thanks for replying.

Jenna
