Title: George Malam
Post by: tortiegirl on Wednesday 29 September 21 15:07 BST (UK)
Am starting to research my family tree on my father's side. He was John Victor Paul Malam, son of George who married Elizabeth Hodgkinson, and lived just outside Crewe. I'd love to know if anyone is is connected with this tree and how far back it goes.

Have you checked the Surname Interests Board to see if anybody else is researching them?

Scroll to bottom of page & link is under TOOLS

Have you checked to see if anybody has a tree on Ancestry etc. There is one on Ancestry showing his mother was Ethel Maria E Hodgkinson

JVP died in Carnforth 1.5.1973 & was married in Lancashire to Bessie Elizabeth Alexander in 1947

Marriage was at St John the Evangelist Accrington

Bessie died 1979 - born 13.10.1919
