Lucy's maiden name was Perkins. Re Alfred - managed to find his death certificate. Died at 2. Very sad

Lancashire / Tomlinson from Blackley, Manchester
« on: Monday 10 November 14 12:30 GMT (UK)  »
Back in the mid 1960s I scribbled a very bad family tree as dictated by my grandmother, Lucy Tomlinson.
She told me she had a brother, Alfred Tomlinson, who died young. Round about 1890. I have searched the records a number of times on Findmypast and Ancestry and familysearch, and found nothing. Does anyone have any clues as to where I go now? Thanks

Re Doocastle - my boyfriend's mother's family were Hauze. We have been twice to look and met a chap called Martin Kelleher. Any relation? It is really difficult to find out any information but you have found something out? Would be grateful to learn of anything about the area. It is certainly all very spread out - not like England! Martin Kelleher takes the grass from our family fields - but we have no way of proving ownership!

Thanks Barbara. AIM was, I think, Associate of the Institute of Metals - I remember a very boring looking magazine arriving regularly!

cheers

Awesome Barbara - that is him! If you have time to type up the info that would be great!
Never had much time to discuss the past with him - he died swimming in the far east. I know he enjoyed school and went on to Manchester University during the war. He was an only child so no other family links.

Many thanks

Clare
