Lancashire Lookup Requests / Foulkes BORN IN BOLTON 1907
« on: Wednesday 15 July 09 10:10 BST (UK)  »
Hi, i dont have a clue where to start on family tree's but my g/f wanted me to try and trace some details of her family tree.  Her parents died when she was young so she knows very little.  Has anybody got some time to spare who could possibly help get me started.  All the details i know are as follows
FATHER - SIDNEY FOULKES B 01/07/1907  BORN IN BOLTON
MOTHER - ELSIE FOULKES NEE HORNBY  B 1922
ELSIE'S FATHER WAS CALLED GEORGE
I THINK ELSIE'S GRANDMOTHER MAY HAVE BEEN CALLED MARY CRITCHLEY

MANY THANKS

Yes, done that also, and even had a message in ' old pals ' section, but still no luck.  Think its time to give it up as a bad job.
Tried for ages, but got nowhere.
Just cant think of what to try next. :(

Will do that.
Problem i have looking on sites is, they normally want you to join and pay a membership by debit/credit card, which i dont have.  Makes things very difficult

Family History Beginners Board / Trying to find girlfriends relatives
« on: Sunday 11 November 07 11:31 GMT (UK)  »
My girlfriend lost her mum when she was only 4yrs old.  She has little knowledge of her parents, uncles/aunts ect.  She has 1 brother 1 sister, but like my girlfriend, they have little memory of anything.  Would be great to find out some history, but i find it difficult looking into this kind of thing.  Can anyone help at all.  I know what yr her parents married, when her dad was born and yr he died, and her mums maiden name, but thats about it.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Does anyone remember Sydney and Elsie Foulkes who lived in Bolton, both now deceased.
Lived on stewart street, halliwell area around 1960.
Need to find someone who may possibly have a photo of the above mentioned, who would be kind enough to let me have a copy.
Many thanks.

Ps, They married in Horwich in around 1950
