Found this site by accident

This is what i have.

My grandfather was patrick forde born in calderbank married georgina summers (born 1908)
Patrick died in a steel works accident in London around 1938.
My brother thinks he knows where he is buried (Coatbridge area)
Georgina remarried, and died in 1997.

They had 4 boys, born early 1930s.
William died 1960's
Timothy (my dad) died 2002
Patrick died about 2004
David died about 2004

The Forde brothers lived in Hamilton/blantyre area about 10 miles from calderbank.

An earlier post in this chat explains why there were two Greens marrying two Fordes. I thought it was a duplicate of some kind!

My dad mentioned we had relatives in calderbank, which was how i found this post.

My dad mentioned he had an aunt Helen (Costello) who taught my brothers in Hamilton (they are in their late 60s now). Assume her name would have been Helen Forde.
