Hi Dawn,
Thanks for your reply.  I spoke to Don (my brother) yesterday while we were at my dad's(also Don)70th Birthday and he said he had contacted you,but there must have been some confusion as he thought you were going to get in touch. Unfortunately I don't know where Bernard was buried as I am very new to all of this. I did try tracing our roots about 10 years ago but it took too much time with having a young family. The only item I have is a copy of Bernards Birth certificate. Sorry can't be of more help. Dad said he has a photo of himself as a child with Great Grandad somewhere (presumably out of uniform) if I find it I will send you a copy. By the way my grandads name was Leonard not George. don't know where I got that idea from!  How long have you been tracing our family tree for?
Debbie

Hi Ken,
Could you tell me what is your link to the 'Shorrock' family tree?
Sorry it's short and sweet but don't know anything about you!

thanks
Debbie

Hi Debbie

Ouch!

The connection was You and Dawn

You wont know anything about me because I have nothing to do with your tree, I live in an area of Manchester that the Shorrocks & Nancarrows lived.

Here on Rootschat help is on hand from 1000's of members all over the world. I myself do a lot of grave hunting, map research & anything else I can do to help a fellow Rootschatter, I try to find a physical connection (graves,roads,house's,area's,photos etc) to other peoples ancestors who lived in North & East Manchester plus some areas of Salford. This is what I have been doing for Dawn.

Regards
Ken

Hi Dawn

Have you got anywhere with Bernard? if not this may be him

I have found on the BMD index

Bernard Shorrock Q4 1957 Manchester 10e 486 aged 74 - that makes this Bernard born the same year as yours 1883.

Also a search of http://www.burialrecords.manchester.gov.uk you will find a Bernard Shorrock buried in 1957.

Unfortunately this web site charges for the grave details, so its up to you if you want to check.

Regards
Ken
