Sandra,

I know …I never knew her but family down the ages have said she was a very nice lady 👌

I have visited where she was born and there are only @6-7 houses

Hi I wonder if someone can help me?

I do not have access to newspaper records and when I have found the newspaper item I cannot open the article.

I know there is an article regarding my great Grandmother published in The Birkenhead News and Wirral General Advertised on the 20 June 1885.

Her details are Sarah Ann Hearn nee King DOB: 10 June 1864 Pencoyd Herefordshire and died: 30 May 1927 Liverpool.

She was married to my Great Grandfather Henry John Hearn DOB: 26 June 1860 Died 27 Nov 1940 Liverpool.

TIA Keith

One added point I have noticed within the notification of Harry's death, the mention of his boxing prowess.

Prior to my mum sadly passing away she did mention that someone in her family was a boxer.

Kind Regards
Keith

I cannot thank you enough.

Thank you so much, it was such a nice surprise to open my email this morning to see Harry’s face staring back at me.

Once again thanks.

Keith

This is a long shot, while I was caring for my mum who sadly passed away in 2024, she mentioned an uncle, at the time she was suffering from Dementia and Alzheimer's.  I had never heard of him before so set about finding out if there was in fact an "uncle" Harry Peterson.  I managed to find his birth certificate and his death certificate.  He died at sea 17 Aug 1942 serving with the 5th Bn the East Yorkshire Regiment.

This is the long shot to my quest I am trying to find any photographs of Harry, I know I might be out of luck.  I am afraid my mum was the last of her family and so the Peterson side of the family there are no surviving relatives.

Do not worry if no one can help, it is a last desperate plea for help.
