What a fantastically friendly and helpful lot you all are on this site (and I've seen the evidence on other threads as well), oh that all people in lkife were such.
Milly: Yes, I found those Hildas as well (thanks to Mancsmans link) - I think she might have died in the 70s, so 77 is plausible, but I'm surprised there is no Leonard.
The information I had came from a long lost cousin (Leonard and Hilda's daughter) with whom I had contact with when an aunty died. I asked her if she knew my (and her) grandfathers and grandmothers names (my mother at the time was suffering from Alzheimers, and didn't even know who she was, never mind me or her own parents) - and she told me they were buried in Phillips Park Cemetry and her parents were alongside. That does not seem to be panning out at the moment and I'm beginning to doubt my own existence.
Since my earlier posting, I've been looking at some old family photographs and think my gtrandfathers name was John, and he died late fifties (I was very young at the time, but rememberit) - but that hasn't helped me in the slightest either.
Ah well, back to the drawing board. I have been resarching Family History on and off for some ten years or so, and have been quite successful on my fathers side tracing the family back to the 1500s in the Isle of Man (hence the pseudonym I'm using).
