Hi All,
I am attempting to help a friend of mine who lives in the USA and does not possess a computer.
We are trying to find family relatives of:
George Henry Wiggins, who is my friends grandfather.
Married to Ethel Kate Tansley in 1913.
Children: Annie Ethel, Eric John and Muriel Joyce (who is my friends mother).
Census 1911: George is a border at 82 Sketty Road, Enfiled, Middx. He is a postman.
Census 1901: George is living at the Cowley Military Barracks, Oxford. A nineteen year old soldier in the Oxford & Buck's regiment. Shows his birth place as Stepney, London.
Census 1891: George is living at home with his father, George senior a labourer and his mother Anne, a shirt machinist. They live at 23 Cornwall Road, Stepney, in the district of Mile End, Old Town. The house is next door to the stables. George senior was from Clerkenwell and Anne from Somers Town.
Muriel Joyce was given up for adoption and moved away from the area to the North East of England. We are really looking for relatives of Annie Ethel and Eric John, both of whom my friend Barbara was unaware of, up until last year when we found George Wiggins WW1 Army records.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
Steve

Hi Steve
Rootschat isn't really a forum for finding living relatives.
Have you read this and looked at some of the hints and tips

If you are on ancestry, there are a couple of private trees with Eric John Wiggins on. It might be worth contacting them for more information.

If you don't have access, you can view the trees with www.mundia.com

Thank you all for the advice and help and apologies for the faux pas.
