Thanks everyone for your extremely kind help, and all the very useful information!  My friend will find it very interesting.

Yes, it was ordered but it has to come to France and it wasn't ordered on the expensive 'express' delivery service option.  it was due to arrive yesterday but there have been a few 'disturbances' on the roads over here.  It will arrive though..

That Scotlandspeople site is fantastic, I never even knew it existed.  Thanks very much Carole!  I have made a note of George Crampton too to check if he is perhaps one of their children.

Thank you all for your help. 

The birth certificates were ordered and due any day now...  the mystery should be resolved soon.

Merry Christmas to you all!

Lincolnshire / Re: Brian Proctor 1936-1996

       Brian Proctor was a friend of mine, a fellow rail enthusiast of many years ago who worked for a long time at Ruston Gas Turbines in Lincoln. He was born in Lincoln in October 1936 and his mother's maiden name was Hughes. In 1924 Joseph Proctor married Amy A Hughes in Lincoln and in 1926 Frank Proctor married Alice S Hughes, also in Lincoln. Curiously, Amy and Alice are sisters and I have not been able yet to determine whether Brian's father was Joseph or Frank. If anyone knows, it would help me in tracing his Proctor ancestors,

                                                                  Andrew Wilson

Joseph Proctor and Amy Ann Hughes were my grandparents so I can reassure you that Brian was not the son of Joseph.  Did Brian live on portland Street.

Great photo.

I'm a bit baffled by the "abz" in the signature though.
Abrazos (hugs) is a standard sign off in Spanish but there's no similar word in French.

Most of my French friends sign off with Bis (short for bisou - Kiss)

Louisa LONGMATE was my great grandmother and I have just started researching that tree.  Her father was John and her mother was Eliza Woodhead.

Sorry, that should be Eliza WALLHEAD b1852, not Woodhead.
