Many thanks, will do. Just occurred to me if they will have the 100 year closure of records.

Lancashire / Huyton with roby orphange 1930’s
« on: Thursday 29 July 21 20:26 BST (UK) »
I have just found my Uncle in the 1939 census in this orphanage. I have been lucky enough to find someone who knew of my family and said that they thought all the family were in this orphanage. Does anybody know if there are any record’s available? It has come as a bit of a shock!

Thanks for your help, I assumed I would be unlucky, from all my ancestors I have not found one grave stone! Think it is a shame that a plaque or something could not have been put on the public graves at the time, I have managed to put a stone on my Aunt's grave in Preston which is also a public grave.

Lancashire / Ford Cemetery Public section B

Does anyone know if this section actually has grave stones in? I have been searching my family tree for years and have not yet found a grave stone just a plot. I am going searching in Preston next week and wondered if it was worth doing a quick detour! The information I have is Mary Catherine Crawford 1943, public section B 275.
Many thanks.
Many thanks.

World War One / 4th Battalion Middlesex Regiment
« on: Saturday 12 January 13 12:39 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find a service record for Robert Mcintosh Bell (DOB 1883 in St Pancras London) who I believe was serving in the 4th Battalion Middlesex regiment in 1915 and possibly later the 6th Battalion. He survived the war but I cannot find any service record even his service number. In 1915 he may have been a Corporal and subsequently a Sargeant. Any help greatly appreciated.

Many thanks for all your help. Went to the Postal Archive yesterday and found the information. He was sent to prison for stealing the post, so it was worth the trip. Found the staff really helpful!
