 AVM,

In conversations with my father he states that it may be possible he was born in Ireland if his mother was Irish ... and that he grew up in earshot of Bow Bells ... this is another possibility at this point. Is there a FreeBDM that includes Ireland?

Best.

I don't know anything about Irish research, but this site may help you: http://www.hse.ie/eng/services/find_a_service/bdm/certificates_ie

There is also an Ireland board on Rootschat.

Do you know anything about what happened to James's siblings - marriage, where & when they died etc? Details about them may assist in tracing their births and, indirectly, that of James.

AVM,

I know very little about the other family members since once James White died, the family lost touch with his siblings. I know some scant details about his brother Bill ( William ) White - who lived in Holborn London ... he was involved in selling Newspapers on Fleet Street. I know that Bill was an elder brother ... I two street locations where he lived in Holborn, but not the house numbers ... I know Bills wifes name and his daughters name. I have no specific dates for Bill however.

Any use?

Possibly useful - details of wife & daughter more useful than addresses.

But given the recency of the dates, I suggest you send me a personal message (PM) rather than posting their details here.  You can send a PM by clicking on my username in the left hand column of the page, or the green scroll underneath it.

I'm logging off now but can have a look later if that would help.

Anna :)
