Barry Stones
« on: Tuesday 29 January 19 00:39 GMT (UK) »
Hi - Seeking descendants or contacts of Barry Stones (not "s" on tail end of name is correct).  Last messaged with him about 14 years ago.  At that time he lived in the County of Leicestershire and his family originated in Lincs.  .

Thank you.  Regards - Dinny.

Thanks Carole.  Was not aware of this policy but....
I have no idea of the age of this man when I spoke to him nor his occupation (past or present);   it is approx. 14 years since I last messaged with him;   he is not available at the email address I have for him (my server is currently searching);   I have tried UK reference material for him and have come up with a number of unlikely Barry's  - in fact I have tried all avenues.  I would certainly not have placed such a query regarding someone who was still living,

Hence I mentioned the possibility of descendants (in those intervening 14 years, a lot could have happened and he may no longer be with us - which could make him a deceased person with descendants or previous contacts.)   Perhaps I should have declared my efforts to find a connection but regrettably, that did not occur to me.   This message is to explain my reasoning to others reading my post and I am looking for a connection to a person who may well be deceased, with descendants.   

I am hoping someone out there may recognise my query and get in touch. I have information which will be of interest to him.   Thank you again for your advice. 

Regards - Dinny.

Sorry - but without knowing for certain we have to assume he is still alive.  If you check freebmd there are 3 births for that surname (without the s) between 1936-1948 in Leics and a whole heap more in other counties spelt both with and without the s -  so not an uncommon name.

Was your contact with him about Family History?  Does he have a tree on Ancestry perhaps which would allow you to contact him that way?

Have you tried social media?

There was a person with a similar name in Leicester but it seems like he has moved and still alive, so we can't give details.
