milne family

[poppysmum]

hi you lot,
thanks for the help, especially how to use the family search site, i didn't know you could look for childen of a couple.  i am going to sit down with all this today and try and get my head round it all.  It is exciting finding an 'exotic' branch of the family   I live in the scottish borders so it is quite far away

hi joe,
sorry i don't know, the only one i know about is gladys, i do have a photoof a man who looks like gladys and my granny has wrote on the back that he looks lke a 'milne brother'.
I think i am going to have to maybe ask my granny if she knows anything about where granpas mum was born(gladys)  i can't find them on the census either, i onloy know they are her parents from her marrage and death certificate.
it's all very odd.

[poppysmum]

I've just checked gladys's death certificat, she died jul 30 (today) 1952 age 52 and robert and martha are definetly her parents.
