Hi Debbi
I'm new to this so may be doing it all wrong (apologies if so).  As far as I can tell you are looking for a Greenwood/Wallis connection - which I do have in the form of Catherine (Kate) Greenwood and Thomas Wallis (my gg grandparents) who lived in Surrey (Brixton and thereabouts) from 1873 (when they married) until they both died of TB, in 1887 (Thomas) and 1892 (Kate) respectively (leaving 5 or 6 children in the workhouse)
Does any of this ring any bells with you?
Kind regards
Rebecca 

Hello Rebecca
This is fantastic news, I had given up on finding anything about them.
My great grandmother was their daughter Florence born 27/06/1878 when they were living at 9 Park Terrace, Cornwall Rd, Brixton (these streets don't exist anymore, but they were by Brixton Prison).
Could you please tell me her siblings names etc, and anything else you know.
Which child are you descended from?
Where did you get this info?
Are you a member on Genes Reunited?
Perhaps you have tree info we could share on there.
Sorry I am asking too many questions, please get in touch soon

Hello
Can anyone help me please, I would like to get the service history of my husbands grandfather.
I want to give it to my husband as a present, and perhaps his medals.
I believe he served on two ships, one of which bought the 'band of brothers' soldiers over from America.
He also served in the Russian convoys (from what I've read, I think I am supposed to write to the Russian embassy to request his medals).

Any tips would be much appreciated.
Debbi
