Title: Eric Crawford Weir & Patricia Ann Crooks
Post by: TW70 on Saturday 15 June 13 14:42 BST (UK)

I stumbled across a listing for the above marrying in 1944 in Brentford, Middlesex and later having a child in Uganda.

Eric was born on 22 November 1914 and I think may be related, purely based on the Crawford middle name before Weir and the timing.  I think he may have been a grandson of Ebenezer Crawford Weir.  Can anyone shed any light on who his parents were which would prove or disproved this theory.

Possibly a slightly unusual request but I do think he and his descendents could be relatives

Very best

Tommy

Thanks folks,

I fear the middle name may be a coincidence then and we wouldn't be related.

Much appreciated

Tommy
