I received your last posting as I posted my thanks. I too think that we need the birth cert. for Mary.Private Lowe was my wife's Uncle,it was my wife's mother who told her that Jack had a little girl when he died. Because we did not know Jacks wife's surname only that they lived in Nottingham when Jack died, we were stuck.We got all our other information from the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.
Thank you once again.
Jonmar.

 Sorry I should have put this in my original posting. He was registered and Baptised as Jack Lowe but for some reason he used his Fathers name.We believe when he died he had a daughter whose name we do not know, we  would like to know if there are any surviving family members.

Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / Searching for the surname of Durrance Of Foston Nr.York.

I am trying to help a friend who is interested in finding any information about a framed piece of lace work which my friend bought at  auction, we believe it was worked by a Mrs Durrance of the Rectory Foston, Nr. Flaxton York.On the back of the frame is attached an envelope containing a letter which we think was written  about  1830 this lace work was a gift to Nellie the ladies Grandaughter. I have searched the census but had no luck.

Thank you both for your help. This looks like my Uncle who was born 1903 in Bourne Workhouse.My last info on him was on the 1911 census aged 8yrs he had been left in the Workhouse,the surname spelling had been changed slightly but I am certain its him.

Lincolnshire / 137 Dysart Road Grantham

Can any one tell me if the address was for some kind of institution in 1961. I have googled it and find it listed as an adult training centre at present. I have a death cert. for someone who could possibly be a relation. The place of death is given as 137 Dysart Rd Grantham the informer is shown as occupier of the same address.
