a long shot I know - but trawl through these 42 results and see if anything catches your eye ??

With newspapers you would need to access them perhaps via the local library where he died?  Do you have any clue as to where he died?  The suggestion is around 1997/98 so that would be a starting point for searching the papers.

Another alternative is to write to a suitable newspaper appealing for information. 

I see that you posted on the topic that I flagged up. If Lee or Lochrane still have active email addys, then they would be notified of activity on that topic.

In some ways you are looking for a needle in a haystack  ::)

Try and get as much information as you can from your mum.
Ok I will try this thanks and I will because she will know more and hopefully lee gets back that would be great.thanks for your help

Have you tried to find any reference to William's death?  Either through the newspapers or a death registration?

I found that old reference that you were referring to.  There were two, one from Lochrane and the other from Lee1986.  This is where the post is:-

https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=67879.msg5169038#msg5169038

It seems they were only on that once.  Unfortunately you can't send a message as they only did the one post.
hi yes thats correct the lochrane one is Mt brother trying to find my grandparents too and the other guy called Lee seems to be my dad's family.i can't seem to find anything at all online about my grandparents or contact lee.

Ok, that's fine.  Do you wish to see if Mum has your Dad's birth certificate?  That would tell you his parents names.
my mum does not have this his parents got everything he had as far as I am aware.i was hoping to get in contact with the man that posted on here about 11 years ago because he sounds like he is talking about my dad.

OK if your dad was born in 1963 then presumably he is still in the land of the living?  Rootschat has a policy of no living persons to prevent spamming etc.

His birth certificate would tell you the names of his parents and from that you should be able to find your grandparents marriage record.

Are the grandparents still alive?
hi my father is no longer alive he died back in 1997 or 1998 and I spoke with my grandparents around this time but losted all contact with them so I am not sure if they are alive anymore.also found a post from a man on here from 11 years ago and says My dad was his uncle but currently can't seem to make contact with him either.thanks

Could you tell us when and where your father was born?  Do you have any names, dates and places of birth for your grandparents?
