Warwickshire Lookup Requests / Re: 66 Grey Friars Lane Coventry.
« on: Friday 07 March 14 04:26 GMT (UK)  »
Hi to all,
Many thanks to all, particularly Brummygirl, who have helped my cousin lyn22 in her/our quest for information on our Burke roots. Lyn & I are also in contact & helping each other. I never cease to marvel at the generous help given by members of the genealogical fraternity to each other.

I've been researching the Burke family of Coventry (both in England as well as our branch in Australia) for the past 45 years, by there is always extra information coming to hand, e.g. the burial records from London Road Cemetery.

In 1990 I wrote a rather amateurish family history, as I then understood it (see Dominick Burke's Descendants - Coventry, England to Australia, Donald James Burke 1990, ISBN 0 646 02340 3). The Coventry Public Library has a copy. Since then I have gleaned much more information with the assistance of some of my distant English cousins.

Happy hunting everyone,
Donald Burke.

Hi all,
Many thanks to all who helped my cousin Lyn22 in her search.

The book which LeighBurke (Post #42, 04 July 1942) mentions appears to be the short history I wrote in 1990. When referring to information in a book it is good practice to give its title, author, publication details & ISBN, if there is one - in this case it is ISBN 0 646 02340 3.

I have been researching the Burke family of Coventry for 45 years & am always willing to help if I can.
