Title: Gourlay - missing in Surrey
Post by: Johnoz on Monday 26 March 12 07:32 BST (UK)

I'm gradually filling in all the gaps in my Gourlay family tree but am lost with the descendants [except one] of James Tough [Jimmy] Gourlay 1909 -1967. Jimmy was born in Forfarshire , Scotland and went to Croydon, Surrey where he became a policeman and married Doreen Beauchamp in 1932.

They produced 3 sons, one of whom I know about. The other two, my second cousins, are a mystery in spite of years of research. I would appreciate anybody knowing of the Gourlays of Croydon sending me a PM.

John Gourlay, Melbourne, Australia.

Hi John,
If you check out the surname interest board  http://surname.rootschat.com/
There are several people researching the Gourlay family.  Maybe someone can help you?
