Lost and confused , how do you know if the names are wrong , or the dates, have you actualy researched this woman to see what happened to her,
Sorry just trying to help,

I appreciate the help I really do.

My Nana provided dates etc to her own kids that do not match any records on the normal BDM searches. The same facts are not even matched on her marriage cert.

The info on her death cert was provided by her daughter (my aunt) from the original info she was given so that is a cyclical search that leads nowhere.

Its something we have had on the back burner for a while but this re-ignited thread has set  us off again ;-)

You mentioned Swinton,
What was the connection,

St Peter Swinton,
born 27th Feb, baptised 24th March 1915,
Annie Barnes,
daughter of John  Barnes and Elizabeth,
father a collier,
abode 45 Swinton Hall Road

John married Elizabeth Worswick in 1914,

Wrong father there as well as wrong dates.

Its all rather frustrating.

I have no problem with my mothers request and will do as she asked even though I do wonder about it from time to time.
If Andy wants to pursue it that is fine as well but as her son I will do as she requested all those years ago on that summers day.

Hello Tony,

I understand how things will be different for you as of course Nana was a much bigger part of your life.

I don't understand what you mean by "what she requested all those  years ago on that summers day" as you have never mentioned any sort of conversation you had with Nana when we chatted about family history?

I know Dad was very frustrated in his last few months as we had never been able to answer the questions he was asking and he, at that time, really wanted to know more and find the answers that we have struggled to get close to.

It also intrigues me as to how you stumbled across this rather old thread ;-)

Cheers

Andy

Hi folks,

After receiving a rather pleasant note from Sarah I have updated the email address so personal messages/notifications will now land where they need.

Thanks Sarah ;-)

Thanks to both of you but as far as I'm aware he isn't an actor but a member of the O'Brien family on my tree but thanks for the date it just might tie in with the family.

Thank you again

Hi I was just wondering if anyone could help me date this photo.
I have only just received it today and I know nothing about it apart from the name of the man (Pat O'Brien)

Hope someone can help.

One other thing it was taken at Souvenir Studios Middlesbrough.

Thanks for looking

But thank you very much for your help.
