Hi

Which direction are you looking for info - backwards for George & Florence's ancestry or forwards from when they had their children

I have information on Florence, parents etc.  Its the children of George & Florence that I would like more information on.  I do believe they lived in Ashton on Mersey after 1900.  This family is related to me through my G.Grandfather.  Florence's father William Cottrill was my Great Grandfathers brother.

Thank you for the information, that's weird to think I grew up in Cheshire, never knowing that we had relatives a couple of miles away.  Families are sure strange!!!!!
